Minimum Wage is Increasing as an Employer of a Nanny Are You Ready?

Some of the challenges in employing a nanny are keeping up with paperwork and ensuring that you are complying with federal and provincial employment standards. There are slight variations to employment laws that get altered over time: the foreign caregiver program, overtime legalities, room and board deductions, workplace safety boards, and minimum wage standards. Keeping up with all of these variances can be a headache if you don’t know what to look for.

This fall, various provinces are updating their minimum wage. As an employer of a caregiver, you need to be in full compliance whether your nanny is paid hourly or a salary.

Here is a breakdown of the changes in each province####

*Note in Alberta: the new live-in domestic wage moves from $2,127/month to $2,316/month

These changes and calculations can be time-consuming and overwhelming, but our HeartPayroll nanny payroll & tax service will help make sure everything is in order.
