REGINA — On Oct. 1, 2023, minimum wage in Saskatchewan will increase to $14 an hour.
The Government of Saskatchewan announced in May 2022 that the minimum wage in the province would be incrementally increased over the coming two years.
In 2007, the minimum wage in the province was $7.95.
According to a Labour Relations and Workplace Safety press release, Saskatchewan's personal taxes are among the lowest in the country. Since 2007, the provincial personal income tax exemptions have removed more than 112,000 people from the province's income tax roll. This has resulted in over $760 million in annual income tax savings for Saskatchewan people.
