Alberta > Employment Law > General Holidays & General Holiday Pay:

I get paid by commission and I am working on a general holiday. How will I be paid for the holiday?

If you are paid entirely by commission, your pay for a general holiday (wages plus time and a half) is calculated based on the current minimum wage rates. If you are paid partly by commission and partly by salary, your pay for a general holiday is based upon whatever is the higher — the salary part of your earnings or the current minimum wage.
