Released on July 10, 2025
On October 1, 2025, minimum wage in Saskatchewan will increase to $15.35 per hour.
Saskatchewan’s minimum wage is calculated using an indexation formula, which gives equal weight to changes to the Consumer Price Index and Average Hourly Wage for Saskatchewan.
"By raising the minimum wage, we are continuing to support workers and deliver on our commitment to affordability," Deputy Premier and Labour Relations and Workplace Safety Minister Jim Reiter said. "Saskatchewan's low personal tax rates continue to make our province a great place to live, work and raise a family."
In 2022, the Government of Saskatchewan indicated it would make incremental increases to minimum wage which resulted in a 27 per cent increase from $11.81 per hour to $15 per hour by 2024. With that commitment having been met, the indexation formula is again in place.
In addition to indexation, the 2025-26 Budget delivered on 13 affordability commitments which included reducing income taxes for every resident, family and small business in our province.
“We know the benefits that increasing the minimum wage will have for employees, but we also want to create a balance for employers,” Reiter said. “Over the next few months, we will be working together with the Chambers of Commerce and other key stakeholders to understand the implications of increasing minimum wage for the business community and the impact on Saskatchewan’s economy.”
