Manitoba Sets Predictable Minimum Wage Increase to $15.80

Effective October 1, 2024, Manitoba will increase its minimum wage by 50 cents to $15.80 per hour, following a CPI-indexed formula established annually. As part of RCC’s Vote Retail Election Campaign last year, the NDP had committed to RCC they would follow this inflation-sensitive indexing model, and we are pleased that despite pressure from labour groups, they have held true to their word.  RCC has long advocated for a predictable non-political formula for adjusting minimum wage, that went from $11.95 to $15.30 over three increases during the final year of the previous government.
