This letter will cite
Quebec Act respecting Labour Standards (CQLR c.N-1.1) ss.39, 43, 46, 55, 74, 82, 113, 114, 115, 122, 123, 123.1, 124, 126, 139-147; Civil Code of Québec art. 2925; Act respecting the Barreau du Québec RLRQ c.B-1 ss.128-129
Your narrative documents the employment, the LNT contraventions, the 1-year s.115 clock per due date, the 45-day s.123 / s.124 windows where applicable, and asks CNESST to investigate, issue the 20-day mise en demeure, and pursue civil action under s.39 + the 20% s.114 administrative surcharge.
Used to set vacation rate (< 3 yrs = 4%; ≥ 3 yrs = 6% under s.74) and to determine s.124 eligibility (requires 2 years).
CNESST guidance: s.115 prescribes 1 year FROM EACH DUE DATE. Each unpaid pay period has its own clock — older periods may already be time-barred.
