Saskatchewan minimum wage going up 35 cents in October to $15.35
Saskatchewan’s lowest earners will be earning a little bit more this fall.
According to the provincial government, Saskatchewan’s minimum wage will increase from $15 per hour to $15.35 per hour, effective on October 1.
The government said it calculates its minimum wage based on an indexation formula, and noted that the minimum wage will have risen by 93 per cent since 2007 after the latest hike takes effect, when it sat at $7.95 per hour.
But, even after the increase, Saskatchewan’s minimum wage will still be the second lowest in the country.
