The Canada Labour Code Part III: Standard Hours, Wages, Vacations and Holidays (Part III of the Code) establishes and protects workers’ rights to fair and equitable conditions of employment.

The provisions of the Code set Labour standards for employment conditions. These labour standards establish minimum working conditions in the federally regulated private sector, such as:

Hours of Work
Minimum Wages
General Holidays
Terminations
Annual Vacations, and
various types of leave

They also create a level playing field for employers by requiring all of them to meet these minimum entitlements.

As you work through the 3 Modules – you will learn why Part III of the Code is Important, How to Access and Find Information and you’ll review examples on how to Apply the Labour Code on day-to-day issues.
