7.02. Where a holiday coincides with a working day for a regular employee, the employer shall pay him an indemnity equal to the wage that the regular employee would receive if the day had not been a holiday.

However, after a written agreement between the employer and the regular employee, that indemnity may be replaced by a compensatory holiday equal to the duration of the holiday. In that case, the holiday shall be taken within the 8 weeks preceding or following the holiday.

Despite the first paragraph, where a regular employee works less than 5 days a week under the employee’s regular schedule, the indemnity is equal to 20% of the wages earned during the pay period preceding the holiday. The percentage is 10% if the pay period is 2 weeks.
