How to read your pay stub

Employees may see entries in the Hours and Earnings section of their pay advice starting on December 19, 2025, related to the BCGEU Return to Work Agreement and implementation of the 20th Main Agreement Memorandum of Settlement.

1. Annual Vacation Adjustment

This refers to adding or subtracting hours from the vacation bank. A positive number is an addition to the bank while a negative number is a deduction. For example, BCGEU auxiliary and part-time regular employees who had vacation entitlement reductions resulting from the Strike Period see those entitlements restored with this entry.

2. Reduced Regular Hours Paid (RHP) / Regular Hours Paid

This is a positive adjustment to an employee’s earnings.  This is a correction for full time BCGEU employees who had their statutory holiday pay affected by the Strike Period. It appears as two entries that undo previous reductions and ensure employees are paid what they are owed.

3. Stat Holiday Entitlement – Part Time

Payment for statutory holidays for part time employees. The entitlement is calculated based on hours worked in the 30 days leading up to the statutory holiday. For example, auxiliary and part-time regular employees who had their November 11 statutory holiday pay affected by the Strike Period saw an adjustment to correct this.

4. Archived Vacation Payout - V90

Payout of an employee’s Archived Vacation Bank. For example, BCGEU employees who selected yes to the Archived Vacation Bank payout, by the December 5, 2025, deadline, had the full amount of their Archived Vacation Bank paid out.
