Maggie
Hi hoomans! My name is Maggie. My paw-fect family will be experienced dog owners who can provide me with a active and structured home. Wise and mature – that’s how I prefer my people. Please ensure my home is adult-only. I am very high energy. I like walks, runs and jogs. Let’s be honest – I pretty much like everything active. I have a penchant for chasing wee creatures, so I will do best in a home with no cats or other small animals. You and I will get a little alone time with the behaviour team during our 2 private consults, won’t that be fun! I hope you come meet me soon! Ruuuv, Maggie

Working Wise Dear Working Wise: My boss told me that I won’t be getting paid for the Canada Day Holiday, because I just started my job. He also said that I won’t get paid overtime for working Canada Day. Is that right? I also worked more than 100 hours over the past two weeks. I am entitled to overtime for those hours, right? Signed Suspicious ©iStockphoto/leaf
Dear Suspicious: Congratulations on the new job. Unfortunately, I don’t have great news for you—your manager is most likely right.
Do you have a work-related question? Send your questions to Working Wise, at charles.strachey@gov.ab.ca. Charles Strachey is a manager with Alberta Human Services. This column is provided for general information.
If you would like to learn more, including which holidays are General Holidays, check out the General Holiday Pay tip sheet at http://work.alberta.ca/es. To be eligible for general holiday pay under Alberta's Employment Standards, you must: o have worked 30 days for your employer in the preceding 12 months; o work your scheduled shift before and after the holiday (unless employer consent is given); o work on the general holiday if requested; o normally work that day of the week, e.g., if you don't normally work on Wednesdays, you are not entitled to be paid holiday pay for a holiday that falls on a Wednesday; and o not be working in an exempted occupation. Many commissioned salespeople, farm workers, and some other occupations are not eligible for General Holiday Pay. You were also wondering if you are entitled to overtime for working on the holiday. Again, because you are short the minimum 30 days of work, you are not eligible for the general holiday. The good news is that you will be eligible for the Labour Day holiday. Finally, you were wondering if you are eligible for overtime for working more than 100 hours during a two-week period. The short answer is yes, there is no minimum number of days of employment before you are eligible for overtime. For most employees, overtime is all hours worked in excess of eight hours a day or 44 hours a week. Overtime is calculated both on a daily and weekly basis. The higher of the two numbers is overtime hours worked in the week. I mentioned that these rules apply to most employees, because some workers are exempted from the overtime rules. If you would like to learn more about overtime and overtime pay, visit http://work.alberta.ca/es and click on the Overtime and Overtime Pay fact sheet. If you have any more detailed Employment Standards questions relating to your situation, call the Alberta Employment Standards Contact Centre toll-free at 1-877-427-3731.
