Recover Unpaid Vacation Wages
Budget: $250 – $750 CAD
I need help bringing an unpaid-wages claim against my former employer. The specific amount relates to accrued but unused vacation that should have been paid out when I left the company; it has now been outstanding for more than three months.
What I already have:
• A written contract and final payslip showing the outstanding vacation balance.
• Email threads in which I repeatedly requested payment.
• The company’s registered address and HR contact details.
What I need from you:
1. A clear legal opinion confirming the strength of my claim for unpaid vacation pay.
2. A concise, professionally drafted letter of demand that cites the relevant employment legislation and gives the employer a fixed deadline to pay.
3. If the letter is ignored, guidance and prepared paperwork for lodging the claim with the appropriate employment tribunal or small-claims court, including calculation of statutory interest and any filing fees.
Acceptance criteria:
• All documents written in plain English, ready to send or file with no further editing.
• References to the exact statutes or regulations that support my entitlement to vacation pay.
• Timelines and next-step instructions that an individual with no legal background can follow confidently.
A background in employment law and experience recovering unpaid wages will be highly valued.
