Episode Details

Nova Scotia is rolling out bold new worker protections: overtime pay kicks in at just 44 hours a week, not 48, and you’ll get paid for extra hours whether you choose them or your boss assigns them. The province’s also cracking down on tip theft to ensure servers and others keep their hard-earned gratuities. While construction and agriculture workers are excluded from the overtime rules, wage recovery powers will follow through separate regulations — all set to launch April 1st, marking a major step toward fairer pay and stronger worker rights across the province.
