Employment Insurance (EI)
Compassionate Care Benefits

Compassionate care benefits may be paid up to a maximum of 6 weeks to a person who has to be absent from work to provide care or support to a gravely ill family member at risk of dying within 26 weeks.

To receive compassionate care benefits you must submit an EI application online or in person at your Service Canada Centre.

The basic benefit rate is 55% of your average insured earnings up to a yearly maximum insurable amount of $42,300. This means you can receive a maximum payment of $447 per week. Your EI payment is a taxable income, meaning federal and provincial or territorial, if it applies, taxes will be deducted.Service Canada

Benefit Definitions

Definitions are very important to understanding what one has and what one thinks they have.

This Union has gone through many states of interpretation defining definitions with our Insurance Company and are still working to understand all of the terms.

If you or your dependents incur charges for any of the Covered Expenses specified, your Extended Health Care and Dental Care benefits can provide financial assistance.

This benefit provides "Emergency" medical protection when traveling or vacationing outside your Province of residence or Canada for up to 183 days. (Travel out of Canada/Province for other than health reasons.)
