I am a primary reserve medic and have been course loaded on my TQ3's in June. I had origionally asked for paid leave from my Public Service Employer which was given. During conversations with my OR the MCpl determined that the TQ3 is defined under clause (vi) of the N.D.A., which is copied below.
Does anyone have any further knowlege of this or have any experience in this type of leave? I have converted my public leave to without pay but it is a big cut in pay so I want to make sure that it is the right decision. Is it possible that the old JLC and SLC (not sure of the new names, been out to long) were the courses these clauses were meant for. Has any one gotten paid leave for their course?
Thanks for your time.
