I directed your Q to our payroll expert, Alan McEwen. Here’s his reply. Hope it helps and feel free to follow up. Glenn
My short answer is yes this time would be vacationable.
Two points to look into further:
- Do they literally keep employees on regular salary, while they are off on a leave, i.e. the pay statement says salary not short-term disability?
- What does the contract of employment say about the right to vacation during inactive service. If it’s silent on this, then for sure vacationable.
