British Columbia's minimum wage increases to $17.40 on June 1, in line with 3.9% inflation.
British Columbia's minimum wage will rise by 65 cents per hour to $17.40 on June 1, aligning with the province's average inflation rate of 3.9% from last year. This change aims to help more people escape poverty and offers predictability for workers and employers. Additionally, minimum piece rates for 15 hand-harvested crops will increase by 3.9% on December 31 to maintain consistency, with the delay in the raise for these crops intended to avoid adjustments during the harvest season.
