39. A senior administrator is considered to hold a position temporarily for an interim period when he is designated to hold a position of senior administrator or officer that is vacant or whose holder is on leave, and does not hold his usual position simultaneously.
An interim period may last between 2 and 18 months, subject to any extension expressly authorized by the Minister. However, to replace a senior administrator or officer on disability leave, parental leave or public office leave, the position may be held for the duration of the leave.
A senior administrator holding a position for an interim period shall receive the salary fixed by the board of directors within the salary class of the position held.
In certain cases, the board of directors may decide, with the approval of the Conseil du trésor, to pay the person holding a position for an interim period a salary higher than the maximum of the salary class for the interim position held.
A senior administrator holding a position for an interim period shall benefit from all the terms of employment prescribed by regulation.
A senior administrator holding a position for an interim period with another employer, after being granted leave without pay by his employer, shall be governed by Chapter 1, Chapter 3, excepting sections 33 to 38 inclusively, Chapters 4, 4.1 and 4.4, and Divisions 1 and 3 of Chapter 7.
