I know I wouldn't pay for stat days when my provider wouldn't be working the week before or the week after. You are not screwed for those 3 days now 'cause you not entitled to them when you aren't working - you aren't charging for Canada day in July when you are closed, why you think people will pay for Christmas closing stat days too?

Also, Boxing Day not a stat day in every province so might be a non-issue anyway.
Suzie_homemaker...is this not the same as the stat holiday falling when I am on vacation and the parent said I must work the day before and the day after to get paid for the stat? You mentioned if she wanted to follow labour standard laws then I should charge her min wage?????? That we do not fall into that category?
