What's your opinion on the Holidays act moving to an Hours based accrual System?

"Hours-based accrual has the potential to achieve a much greater focus on simplicity. “While shifting to hours-based accrual may require drafting a fundamentally different Bill, I believe investing the time and effort to do this will deliver superior improvements to both employers and employees."

The existing accrual process is stupid and actual accrual will be better.

I don't trust NActFirst to write this bill though. They're certain to erode protections for employees at the same time.

I'm with you, changes to simplify things are clearly needed, but allowing this government to completely rewrite the bill just seems like a bad idea.
