How many days of vacations am I entitled to?
<p>I started on August 19 2020 and vacations are added on May, so between August 19 2020 and May 1 2021, I had around 9 days of vacation, but then HR tells me between May 1 2021 and May 2022, I can only take 9 days. But in Canada, Quebec, it says we should have at least 1 day of vacation every month if we work less than a year, and then on my job posting it said 3 weeks of vacation. So can the employer say 3 weeks and then claim you can only have 9 days of vacation?</p>
<p>3 weeks meaning 15 days.</p>
<p>Something is confusing me, it makes literally 0 sense.</p>

<p>You are entitled to the greater of the statutory minimum vacation, and the amount of vacation specified in your employment contract.</p>
<p>The statutory minimum vacation earned for working 9 months (Aug to Apr) is 9 days of vacation. You actually worked 8 full months plus 1 partial month, but you would still get 9 days.</p>
<p>If your employment contract specified a higher amount, such as 3 weeks per year, it would likely be pro-rated as 9/12*15 = 11.25 days, and 15 days for future years. For the details, you'd have to refer to your employment contract.</p>
