Alberta > Employment Law > Overtime:

I am paid on a commission basis. How will my entitlement to overtime be calculated?

If your pay is based only on commission or piecework, your overtime pay is based on the current minimum wage rate.

If your wages are based partly on commission or piecework, your overtime pay is based on the salary part of your wages if that amount is more than minimum wage. If the salary part is less than minimum wage, the overtime pay is based on minimum wage rates.
