• The vacation year runs from January to December.
• Hourly employees in Canada are paid out their accrued vacation pay on every pay cheque. Accrued vacation pay shows separately from regular earnings on pay stubs to make it easier to see.
• Vacation time does not roll over from year to year, unless required by applicable employment standards legistlation. If you have unused vacation time as of October, Chipotle reserves the right to schedule your vacation to ensure that you take the minimum required by applicable employment standards legislation. Additional unused vacation time will be forfeited.
• Chipotle will not grant requests for carryover of vacation time from one year to the next and will not pay out accumulated vacation pay in lieu of vacation unless otherwise required by applicable employment standards legislation. All vacation must be taken within the timelines described in this policy.
• If a statutory holiday occurs during your approved vacation, you will be provided an additional vacation day.
• Any unpaid accrued vacation pay will be paid out to you at the time of termination in accordance with applicable employment standards legislation.

Vacation can be requested for one or more days, subject to approval and operational needs. Submit your request in Workday and notify your manager as soon as possible.

• Sick time may be taken at anytime, and you’ll be paid 100% of your wages for each hour of sick time taken. Any time taken that exceeds your annual allotment will be unpaid.
• Sick time does not carry over from year to year and is not paid out upon termination of employment.
• Sick time is counted as “sick leave” or similar protected leave under the terms of applicable provincial employment standards legislation.

Notify your manager as soon as possible and submit a request in Workday under “Time Off.” You may be requested to provide proof of entitlement, such as verification of personal illness by a medical physician.

• Employees on an approved leave of absence (such as pregnancy leave, parental leave, or short-term disability leave) continue to accrue vacation time while on leave. If employees are unable to take vacation before the end of the vacation year due to such an approved leave, they will be permitted to carry over that vacation time to the following year.
• Employees are encouraged to take vacation time before a leave begins, if possible. Any vacation time carried over due to a leave will be scheduled within six months after the employee's return to work.
