Statutory Holidays

If an agency is closed on a Statutory Holiday and that day is a regular field placement day, the student will accrue the hours normally collected (e.g. 7.5 hours) and will be required to itemize the accrual in their Attendance Form.

If the agency is open on a Statutory Holiday, the student should attend placement as requested by the placement supervisor, understanding that some agencies still provide client care. However, the student has now earned time and a half for all hours worked. They need to indicate this on their Attendance Form.

* The civic holiday in August will be assessed as a statutory holiday as the college is closed.
