There is a minimum wage law for most jobs. Each province sets a minimum wage, which is the lowest amount of money the employer may pay you for your work. In 2013, the minimum wage in BC is $10.25 per hour except for liquor servers, who receive a minimum wage of $9.00 per hour. The rates change from time to time. | There is a minimum wage law for most jobs. Each province sets a minimum wage, which is the lowest amount of money the employer may pay you for your work.
