Urgent Matter. An employee is eligible for personal emergency leave because of the death, illness, injury or medical emergency of, or an “urgent matter” concerning, a specified family member, as listed above. An urgent matter is an event that is unplanned or out of the employee’s control, and raises the possibility of serious negative consequences, including emotional harm, if not responded to. Examples of an “urgent matter”: • The employee’s babysitter calls in sick • The house of the employee’s elderly parent is broken into, and the parent is very upset and needs the employee’s help to deal with the situation. • The employee has an appointment to meet with his/her child’s counselor to discuss behaviour problems and appointment could not be scheduled outside the employee’s working hours.

If the contract does not provide a greater right or benefit than the personal emergency leave standard in the ESA, the personal emergency leave provision of the ESA will apply to the employee. The ministry will not get involved in determining how the leave provisions of the contract are applied. For example, a contract only provides three paid personal sick days and three paid bereavement leave days per year. It does not provide job- protected time off for any other reason. This contract does not provide a greater right or benefit than the ESA’s personal emergency leave provisions. This means that the employee will be entitled to 10 unpaid days of personal emergency leave per calendar year for any of the reasons listed in the ESA. If the employee takes 10 days of personal emergency leave for personal illness, the employee will have used up the entitlement under the ESA. Interaction between Personal Emergency Leave and Family Medical Leave Personal emergency leave and family medical leave are two different types of leave. Personal emergency leave is unpaid, job protected leave of up to 10 days each calendar year. Personal emergency ...
