How the LMIA Prevailing Wage Works in Manitoba

When a Canadian employer applies for a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) in Manitoba, they must offer you an hourly wage that is at least equal to the median wage for your specific NOC code.

Under ESDC rules, the High-Wage Stream threshold is calculated as the Provincial Median Hourly Wage plus 20% ($25.00/hr + 20% = $30.00/hr). Any wage offer below this amount falls under the Low-Wage Stream, which is subject to employer hiring caps and refusal-to-process moratoriums in census metropolitan areas with 6%+ unemployment.
