Saskatchewan’s general minimum wage is increasing $.24 from $10.72 to $10.96 effective October 1. The Saskatchewan minimum wage increase is based on an objective indexation formula where minimum wage increases are determined by a combination of the consumer price index and the previous year’s average hourly wage.
Restaurants Canada has advocated for minimum wage increases that are based on objective economic indicators, which ensures entry level employee wages keep up with the cost of living without risking entry level employees jobs and hours of work.
