Manitoba Overtime Rules
Manitoba pays overtime after 8 hours in a day or 40 hours in a week at 1.5x the regular wage. Standard hours are 8 a day and 40 a week; time worked beyond either one is overtime.
- 1.5x pay for hours worked beyond 8 in a day or 40 in a week.
- Because daily hours count, one long shift can create overtime even when the week stays under 40 hours.
- Managers, supervisors, and some professionals can be exempt from overtime.
Example: a single 10-hour shift in an otherwise short week still earns 2 hours of overtime in Manitoba.

Managers and supervisors, and certain professionals, are commonly exempt from overtime. The exact exemptions vary by province, so check your provincial employment standards.
