Such supplementation shall continue for a maximum period of one hundred and nineteen (119) days from the first day of supplement. Regular net salary will be based on the employee’s basic salary (exclusive of overtime and premiums) less the employee’s usual income tax deduction, Canada Pension Plan contributions and Employment Insurance contributions, and any benefit plan contributions which are waived under the terms of the plan. Subject to the provision of each plan, the employee may request the Employer to deduct from the supplement, if sufficient, the contributions which would have been paid by the employee to the Employer’s pension plan, dental care plan and life insurance plan as if the employee was not disabled. If the supplement is not sufficient, or where the employee elects to receive an advance, the employee may, subject to the provisions of each plan, forward self-payments to the Employer for the first one hundred and nineteen (119) calendar days, to ensure the continuation of these benefit plans. The Employer will contribute its usual contributions to these benefit plans while the employee contributes. If at any time it is decided by the Workers Compensation Board that a supplement paid by an Employer during a claim for Compensation Benefits must be offset against benefits otherwise payable by the Workers Compensation Board, such supplementation shall cease immediately and no further supplement shall be payable by the Employer. Further to this, the Facility shall notify Workers Compensation of salary adjustments at the time they occur.
