Median hourly wage update for 2023 Temporary Foreign Workers Program

The province and territorial median hourly wage is used by Canadian employers to determine the requirements for the Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP). Employers will need to file for a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) under the stream for high wage or low wage roles, each with their own requirements, depending on the location of the position and the pay being given to the employee. Employees are seen as having low wages if their pay is below the provincial or territorial median wage and as having high wages if their pay is at or above the median.
