ICMYI—Dr. @iPreetBrar on why the Canada Recovery Sickness Benefit (CRSB) is NOT paid sick leave: thestar.com/opinion/contri…

#CRSB is limited to those workers who miss at least 50% of their work week because they are unwell or isolating from #COVID19: canada.ca/en/revenue-age…

1/5
This means that #CRSB doesn't cover shorter absences, thereby excluding:

-Worker time off to get tested or vaccinated

-Workers who stay home due to symptoms or exposure, subsequently test negative for #COVID19, and are cleared for return to work within <50% of a work week.

2/5
#CRSB is limited to a 1-week period, is not renewable and can only be used 4 times/year.

This may not be enough for workers in high exposure occupations.

These limitations may discourage testing and isolation of workers, thereby hindering mitigation of workplace outbreaks.
