Saskatchewan Overtime Rules
Saskatchewan pays overtime after 40 hours in a week and after 8 hours in a day at 1.5x the hourly wage. Employers can schedule the 40 hours as five 8-hour days or four 10-hour days; on a four-day schedule, daily overtime starts after 10 hours instead of 8.
- 1.5x pay for hours worked beyond 40 in a week or 8 in a day (10 in a day on a four-day schedule).
- In a week with a public holiday, the weekly overtime threshold drops from 40 hours to 32.
- Managers, supervisors, and some professionals can be exempt from overtime.
Modified work arrangements and averaging permits can change when overtime starts, so check which schedule applies to you. The calculator assumes the standard 8-hour day.
Frequently asked questions

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