How this is calculated
- Yearly salary = hourly wage × hours a week × paid weeks a year.
- Overtime = hourly wage × 1.5 × overtime hours a week × paid weeks, added to your salary. Overtime is time worked over 8 hours a day or 40 hours a week, paid at a rate of at least 150% of your regular wage.
- Take-home pay comes from our Manitoba income tax calculator: federal and Manitoba income tax, CPP, CPP2 and EI on your total yearly pay, using CRA’s T4127 payroll formulas.
- Per period: monthly, twice-monthly and every-two-weeks amounts split the year into 12, 24 and 26 equal pays. Weekly and hourly amounts divide by the weeks and hours you actually work, overtime included.
Switching from salary to hourly works the same way in reverse: salary ÷ (hours a week × paid weeks). Hourly amounts are rounded to the cent.

Between October 2021 and October 2023 Manitoba raised its minimum wage three times in a year, from $11.95 to $15.30.
There’s no rule that you get raises beyond the minimum: if you already earn more, a minimum wage increase doesn’t change your pay.

Special minimum wages
Manitoba’s minimum wage applies equally to all employees, whatever their age or hours, including students and part-time workers.
Heavy construction and industrial, commercial and institutional construction have their own wage schedules; residential construction uses the general minimum wage.
Room and meals can be deducted only if you actually get them, and they can’t take you below the minimum wage in a pay period by more than $1 a meal and $7 a week for the room.
Domestic workers who work less than 12 hours a week aren’t covered by the minimum wage.

Overtime rules in Manitoba
Overtime is every hour over 8 in a day or 40 in a week, and each hour counts once: in Manitoba’s own example, days of 10, 6, 10, 6 and 10 hours (42 in total) are 6 hours of overtime, not 8. General holidays count as hours worked for overtime; vacation and paid sick time don’t have to. The rate is 1.5 times your regular wage, for each hour or part of an hour.
Time off instead of pay. You and your employer can agree in writing to bank overtime: 1.5 hours banked for each overtime hour, taken during your regular hours within three months. Anything not taken by then is paid out.
Averaging. An averaging permit from Employment Standards, an individual flextime agreement or a union agreement can change the standard hours.
Who’s different. Managers, and employees who largely control their own hours and earn at least twice the Manitoba average industrial wage, have no standard hours. Landscaping businesses use 10 hours a day and 50 a week from April 15 to November 30; construction sectors have their own hours.
Worked example: five 10-hour days at $25.00 an hour
That’s 50 hours in the week. Daily overtime is 5 days × 2 hours = 10 hours; weekly overtime is 50 − 40 = 10 hours. Manitoba pays the larger, so 10 hours are overtime.
| 40 regular hours × $25.00 | $1,000.00 |
|---|---|
| 10 overtime hours × $37.50 | $375.00 |
| Pay for the week | $1,375.00 |
That’s $125.00 more than the same hours at straight time.

If you’re sent home early in Manitoba
If you’re scheduled for 3 hours or more and your employer cuts the shift short after you report, you must be paid for at least 3 hours at your regular wage. If the scheduled shift was under 3 hours, you’re paid for the whole shift.
Example: you earn $25.00 an hour and you’re sent home after 1 hour. You’re owed $75.00: 3 hours × your own $25.00 rate, not just the $25.00 for the hour you worked.
- It applies when you’re sent home because business is slow, too many people were scheduled, the weather changes the work, or you’re called in while on call.
- If your employer cancels the shift before you report, there’s no reporting pay.

General holidays and holiday pay in Manitoba
Manitoba has 9 general holidays:
- New Year’s Day
- Louis Riel Day
- Good Friday
- Victoria Day
- Canada Day (July 1)
- Labour Day
- Orange Shirt Day (National Day for Truth and Reconciliation)
- Thanksgiving Day
- Christmas Day
Who qualifies. There’s no minimum time on the job; someone who started the day before gets 5% of that day’s wages. You lose it if you’re scheduled to work the holiday and don’t, or miss your last scheduled day before it or your first one after it, without your employer’s permission.
Holiday pay. If you always work the same hours, a regular day’s pay. If your hours or wages vary, 5% of your wages (not counting overtime) in the 4 weeks before the holiday.
If you work the holiday, you get either
- 1.5 times your regular wage for the hours you work, plus your general holiday pay; or
- at gas stations, hospitals, hotels, restaurants, places of amusement, continuously operating businesses and some others, your regular wage plus another day off with holiday pay within 30 days.
If it’s not one of your work days. If it falls on a weekend you don’t work, you get the next regular workday off with pay. If it falls on a weekday you don’t normally work, you get a normal workday off with pay before your next vacation, or at another time you agree to.
Easter Sunday, Terry Fox Day and Boxing Day aren’t general holidays in Manitoba. Remembrance Day isn’t either, but it has its own rules on opening and pay.
A union agreement or a written agreement with most employees can move any holiday except Orange Shirt Day to another day within 12 months.

Vacation and vacation pay in Manitoba
| Years of service | Vacation time | Vacation pay |
|---|---|---|
| Years 1 to 4 | 2 weeks | 4% of the previous year’s wages |
| After 5 years | 3 weeks | 6% of the previous year’s wages |
- When you finish your fifth year, your employer owes an extra 2% on that year’s wages, which were paid at 4%.
- You must take vacation within 10 months of earning it. If you can’t agree on dates, your employer sets them with 15 days’ notice, in blocks of at least a week.
- A general holiday during your vacation adds another vacation day, plus holiday pay.
- Vacation pay is worked out on regular wages and general holiday pay, not overtime or last year’s vacation pay. If your job ends, it’s due within 10 working days.
Source: Government of Manitoba – Vacations and vacation pay (fact sheet); checked October 23, 2026.
Worked example: $25 an hour with overtime
You earn $25 an hour and work 45 hours a week (9 hours a day, 5 days), paid all year. Overtime is time worked over 8 hours a day or 40 hours a week, paid at a rate of at least 150% of your regular wage.
| Regular pay: $25 × 40 × 52 | $52,000.00 |
|---|---|
| Overtime: $37.50 × 5 × 52 | $9,750.00 |
| Total yearly pay | $61,750.00 |
| Income tax, CPP, CPP2 and EI | −$14,907.25 |
| Take-home pay | $46,842.75 |
The 5 extra hours add $9,750.00 before tax but $6,416.11 after tax, because those extra dollars are taxed at your marginal rate of 33.3% rather than your average rate. Spread over 45 hours a week, your take-home works out to $20.02 an hour.
What this calculator assumes

- It doesn’t include RRSP or pension contributions, union dues, benefits or other payroll deductions.
Frequently asked questions
How much is $25 an hour per year in Manitoba after tax?
At $25 an hour, 40 hours a week for 52 weeks, you earn $52,000 a year before tax. After federal and Manitoba income tax, CPP and EI, you take home about $40,426.64, which is $1,554.87 every two weeks or $19.44 for each hour worked.
How much is minimum wage per year in Manitoba?
Manitoba’s general minimum wage is $16.40 an hour (since October 1, 2026). Full time (40 hours a week, 52 weeks), that's $34,112 a year, or about $28,082.05 after tax and deductions.
How many working hours are in a year?
A full-time year of 40 hours a week for 52 weeks is 2,080 hours. At 37.5 hours a week it's 1,950 hours. If you take two weeks off unpaid, use 50 weeks in the calculator: that's 2,000 hours at 40 hours a week.
How is overtime paid in Manitoba?
Overtime is time worked over 8 hours a day or 40 hours a week, paid at a rate of at least 150% of your regular wage.
Should I use 52 weeks if I get vacation pay?
Yes, in most cases. Manitoba’s rule: 4% of wages (two weeks), rising to 6% (three weeks) after five consecutive years with the same employer, which is paid for your weeks off. Whether it's paid during your time off or added to each cheque, you're paid for the full year, so 52 weeks gives the right yearly total.
What is $60,000 a year as an hourly wage?
$60,000 a year is $28.85 an hour if you work 40 hours a week for 52 weeks (2,080 hours). Type a salary into the calculator to convert it the other way, including after-tax hourly pay.
Why is my after-tax hourly wage so much lower than my pay rate?
Income tax, CPP and EI all come off before you're paid. At $25 an hour about 22.3% goes to deductions, so $25.00 becomes $19.44. Because tax rates rise with income, the gap grows as your wage goes up.
