Does weekend work count as a work day (for the 2 year work requirement)

[Kamesh]

Hello everybody!

I hope this question will make sense to you guys! My work requires me to come in on weekends every once in a while (overtime, but not overtime pay!). I've also taken some unpaid leaves during my almost 2 years in Canada so I wanted to know if I could use the days I worked during the weekend to cover my unpaid vacation.

For example, I took 2 days of unpaid vacation this week, but worked Saturday and Sunday of the following weekend. Does that add up to 2 weeks/10 working days in the eyes of Consul?



Many Thanks!

If your employer considers them to be "comp days" (you exchange two days to cover the 2 weekend days), then, sure, why not?

As long as your employer write Full Time 40hrs per week, VO dont care about weekend work and unpaid vacation days.
