An employer can provide benefits to an employee outside of what is set out in statute. There is statutory annual leave and an employer can do more. Employers can be flexible. We spoke about that already in terms of many employers dealing flexibly when they arrive at a circumstance where an employee is already a victim of, for example, domestic violence. This is a floor in terms of a statutory right.
