Notes

• The Remembrance Day holiday is governed by the Remembrance Day Act. Some employees may be entitled to a benefit.
• Some days are commonly recognized as holidays but are not paid holidays under the Nova Scotia Labour Standards Code. Employers may agree to provide their employees with additional paid holidays and the Labour Standards Division could enforce such an agreement.
