The business closing rules of the Remembrance Day Act,(opens in a new tab) do not apply to your employer. Your employer can open just like any normal workday. Your employer is not required to provide employees with the day off (with or without pay), a replacement day off (with or without pay), or extra pay (generally known as “premium pay”), to employees unless any of these things are required by a collective agreement or employment contract that you may have with your employer.
