Pay and Salary Calculators for Canadian Workers
Every Canadian paycheque has mandatory deductions: federal income tax, provincial income tax, Canada Pension Plan (CPP) contributions at 5.95%, and Employment Insurance (EI) premiums at 1.63%. In 2026, CPP applies on earnings between $3,500 and $74,600, with CPP2 adding 4% on earnings from $74,600 to $85,000. EI is capped at $68,900 of insurable earnings.
Provincial employment standards set minimum wages, overtime thresholds, vacation pay entitlements, and severance rules. These vary significantly — Ontario requires 1.5x overtime after 44 hours/week, while British Columbia triggers overtime after 8 hours/day. Vacation pay ranges from 4% (2 weeks) to 6% (3 weeks) depending on years of service and province.
These calculators help both employees and employers understand the true cost of employment, plan for take-home pay, and ensure compliance with Canadian labour standards.
