How is the quantification of the loss flowing from depletion of sick leave benefits?
British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from Bjarnson v. Parks, 2009 BCSC 48 (CanLII):
The case authorities do not appear to support a universal approach to the quantification of the loss flowing from the depletion of sick leave benefits. For example, in Collins v. Ma, 1990 CanLII 1634 (B.C.S.C.), the court endorsed a contingency calculation being applied in order to take into consideration the likelihood of an employee drawing on the lost banked sick days in the future. That approach was followed by the court in Olson v. Nixon, [1991] B.C.J. No. 155, 1991 CarswellBC 1346 (S.C.).
