In Canada What is the minimum hours an employer has to pay you if your sent home early?

It is more the minimum amount of money that an employer has to pay versus the number of hours. If an employee works less than 3 hours than the employer is required to pay the employee an amount equal to 3 hours of work at the minimum wage in the respective province. So for example, in Alberta the minimum wage is $8.80/ hours X 3 hours is $26.40, so if the employee's hourly rate is in excess of the minimum wage, for example $12.00, than the employer is only required to pay 2.2 hours, which is $26.40 / 12.


Are minimum wages necessary to protect the interests of the employee or the employer?

Actually, the minimum wage helps to protect both the worker and the employer. The minimum wage acts as a guideline for the employer so he can assess what other employers are paying for unskilled work. As the complexity of the job tasks increase, the employer can raise the remuneration in order to retain the more experienced workers. The minimum wage aides the unskilled worker in that it helps to protect him from employer exploitation.

Do the wage and tips have to equal minimum wage?

This differs from jurisdiction to jurisdiction.In the United States, federally, the wage and tips have to equal at least minimum wage. Your employer HAS to pay you the difference of your tips from minimum wage, if you didn't end up meeting minimum wage.Example: If minimum wage is $8.00 and after that hour, you only received $6 in tips, then your employer owes you $2.00 for that hour. This can also be figured per shift totals. Exa: $8.00/hr per 8 Hour shift = $64/shift. If you only received $50 in tips that whole shift, then your employer owes you $14 for that shift.In Ontario, Canada, tips do not count towards regular wages. Your employer must pay you at least minimum wage beforetips.


What is the minimum wage for a tipped employee in Maryland?

If the waitress job is able to earn tips (some types of restaurant don't have a tipping system) and those tips are expected to regularly add up to $30 or more per mouth, the minimum wage is $3.63 per hour. It is worth noting that Maryland law indicates that any such tipped employee who is making a total (wage + tips) that adds up to less than $7.25 per hour is entitled to have the difference made up by the employer. This rules is frequently violated by cheapskate restaurant managers and should be reported to the labor department's wage and time office whenever observed.
