Thanks for that question as well.
We absolutely heard the urgency from the minister this morning in reference particularly to the omicron variant that is showing up across the country. In terms of how it would be brought into force and how the benefits would flow through to the workers in the federally regulated sector, the bill would come into force by order in council by the coming into force date, which has not yet been determined.
As soon as it is brought into force, it would start to apply immediately to workers across the federally regulated sector. As we've heard and as the bill is currently drafted, they would start to earn one day of paid sick leave per month worked from the time that it comes into force.
