Navigating New Frontiers: A Guide to Canada’s Revised Minimum Wage Landscape for Immigrants in 2024

Published

on

With the world full of opportunities and options to live a better life, it is no wonder that Canada is considered to be one of the best places for immigrants to move to. People are moving each day to this land of opportunities with a world-class health system, scenic views, and better living conditions to witness.

But when choosing to move to Canada, one of the very first things that every immigrant wants to check up on is the average cost of living and whether or not you are willing to move with the Canada’s minimum wage offered to you in the part of the world.

However, it is important to mention that each year, on April 1, the minimum wage for different provincial territories is revised to meet the challenges of inflation that have been on the rise since after the pandemic. And therefore, you will find out that Quebec minimum wage in 2024 is different from Yukon.

Thus, you need to understand the number of hours you would be allowed to work and the minimum wage in Canada that any immigrant needs to survive in the new land.

  1. How much is the minimum wage in Canada?

Canada’s minimum pay is dependent upon the kind of work that you opt for and the province that you are living in. However, the average minimum age in Canada comes out to be C$15. However, there is a slight change in the minimum Canadian wage when you move to Yukon, where the average wage is slightly higher, which is C$ 16.77, to meet the expected inflation of the province. The minimum wage in Quebec is C$ 15.25 per hour.

Therefore, whenever a new immigrant decides to move to Canada, it is essential for them to choose a province that offers a higher minimum wage and has lower living costs as well.

  1. The minimum wage will apply to?

One of the foremost questions that most immigrants have in mind is to whom the minimum wage factor applies. 

According to INC – Immigration News Canada, all the federally regulated private sector comes under the provision of minimum wage law, and therefore, almost all the federally regulated bodies come under the law.

  • Air transportation
  • Banks
  • Grain related fields
  • Most of the federal crown corporations.
  • Port services, marine shipping, and Canada Post corporations.
  • Postal and courier services.
  • Radio and television broadcasting.
  • Road transportation services.
  • All services that come under telecommunication.
  1. Who determines the minimum wage? 

The federal government determines the minimum wage of the provinces, but it is important to note that it needs to be approved by the federal cabinet. However, it is important to note that the ten provinces of Canada and three territories are responsible for the minimum wage declaration, and therefore, each year, different factors are considered for minimum wage.

However, it is important to mention that the minimum wage for Canada only differs in age for provinces in Ontario; people under 18 years or students who are working less than 28 hours per week need to work with a minimum wage, which is less than 70% on average. On the other hand, other provinces follow the same guidelines for minimum wage for all groups and ages.
