Do employees have to use their accrued vacation and/or sick time before they are eligible for Shared Work benefits?
A. No. The manner in which leave time is used depends on your company policy and/or labor agreement(s). Shared Work pays benefits only for those periods of unemployment caused by the employer. Just like regular unemployment benefits, Shared Work benefits are not payable to an employee who is not working due to illness, injury or vacation.
