Can Employers Substitute Another Day for September 30?

In most statutory jurisdictions, the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation in Canada can be substituted with employee agreement—but Manitoba is the exception. Under Manitoba's Employment Standards Code, employers cannot substitute another day. BC, PEI, Northwest Territories, Yukon, and Nunavut permit substitution by written agreement. Non-statutory provinces offer more flexibility for alternative arrangements. Always verify local employment laws before making changes. EBSource details substitution rules for every jurisdiction.
