§ 69. Mr. Jannerasked the Minister of Labour how many industries give their employees a week's holiday with pay; and how many two weeks' holiday with pay.
§ Sir W. MoncktonAmong the industries for which information is recorded in my Department and in which holidays with pay are granted to manual wage-earners under voluntary collective agreements between employers and work-people, or by statutory orders, 37 provide, in general, for one week's holiday and 114 for two weeks' holiday with pay a year, in addition to public holidays.
There is also a small number in which the period is between one and two weeks or the arrangements provide for the extension from one to two weeks by stages and there are a few industries in which the period varies in different areas.
Corresponding information regarding periods of paid holidays for non-manual workers is not available in my Department.
