@officialmariozelaya: Nova Scotia has special overtime rules for construction workers. You need to work over 110 hours in two weeks in order to be considered for overtime pay. What that means is, you can work 80 hours one week, 30 hours the next week and still not be eligible for overtime pay. Unreal. ##novascotia##overtime##construction

it's cause society encourages it, long hard hours in hope to get ahead in life, canda needs to up the wages in general never mind fixing the archaic labour laws. it's almost like canda got stuck in 2006 and never progressed esp here in bc

In Nova Scotia, most employees are entitled to overtime pay at a rate of 1.5 times their regular wage for each hour worked after 48 hours in a week. A week is defined as a consistent seven-day period.

This country is a dumpster. Politicians and the wealthy are the only ones living life. The rest of us just work.

I thought anything over 48 hr a week is overtime. Construction must be different. Either way it sucks.
