The minimum wage in New Brunswick will increase to meet the Atlantic average by Sept. 1, 2011, as part of a long-term plan announced today. The minimum wage will increase in four steps:
April 1, 2010: an increase of 25 cents to $8.50 per hour;
Sept. 1, 2010, an increase of 50 cents to $9 per hour;
April 1, 2011: an increase of 50 cents to $9.50 per hour;
Sept. 1, 2011: an increase of 50 cents to $10 per hour.
Post-Secondary Education, Training and Labour Minister Donald Arseneault said it is important to outline a long-term plan for increasing the minimum wage.
The recommended increases will fulfil the provincial government's commitment to raise the minimum wage to the Atlantic average by Sept. 1, 2011, which is expected to reach $10 per hour.
