S-4.2, r. 2 - Regulation respecting the classification of services offered by family-type resources and the rates of compensation applicable to each type of service

Section 17 Disposition versions

2012-09-01

17. A family-type resource having accumulated, during the same fiscal year ending 31 March, a minimum of 345 days during which one of the compensations prescribed in this Classification was received, with the exception of the compensation prescribed in section 7, shall be entitled, during the following fiscal year, to a maximum refresher period of 20 days. During such period, the family-type resource shall be entitled to receive the compensations applicable under this Classification in accordance with the conditions set therein.

In a case where there are fewer than 345 days accumulated, the family-type resource shall be entitled to a 20-day refresher period minus the number of days missing to make up the 345.

If the institution identified by the regional board fails to provide the family-type resource with such a refresher period, the latter shall be entitled to an annual lump sum payment equal to $9.41 multiplied by the number of users present in the family-type resource on 31 March of the previous year. The product is then multiplied by the number of refresher days to which the family-type resource would have been entitled under the first and second paragraph or, where applicable, by the remaining number of refresher days if the family-type resource has benefited from such measure during the current fiscal year. No compensation shall exceed $783.04.

For the purposes of this section, the simultaneous absence of all users in a family-type resource shall be considered as a refresher period.
