9. The pensionable salary of an employee is the basic salary paid to the employee in the course of a calendar year.
The pensionable salary of an employee on maternity leave or personal leave in connection with pregnancy or delivery is the basic salary to which the employee would have been entitled if the employee had not taken such leave.
The pensionable salary of an employee on paternity leave or leave for the non-birthing parent or on adoption leave is the basic salary the employee would have been entitled to receive if the employee had not been on such leave for the period during which the employee receives benefits, or would receive benefits if the employee had applied for them, under the Québec parental insurance plan established by the Act respecting parental insurance (chapter A-29.011) or the employment insurance plan established by the Employment Insurance Act (S.C. 1996, c. 23). The pensionable salary of an employee during a period of absence covered by salary insurance is the basic salary the employee would have been entitled to receive if the employee had been at work.
Despite the fourth paragraph, the pensionable salary of an employee or person who receives benefits under the mandatory basic long-term salary insurance plan applicable to management personnel in the public and parapublic sectors or a mandatory supplementary salary insurance plan referred to in section 20 is, from the 105th week, the pensionable salary established at the end of the 104th week of disability. The pensionable salary is then adjusted annually according to the conditions set out in the insurance contract.
Unless included by government regulation, bonuses, allowances, compensations and other additional remuneration are not included in the basic salary.
