A Canadian term. Provincial employment standards are the rules on hours of work, overtime, minimum wage, public holidays, and vacation in each Canadian province or territory.

In the UK, do not copy a provincial employment standards act into policy. Hours, rest, and holiday sit under UK working-time and holiday rules, and pay floors sit under the National Minimum Wage and National Living Wage. A Canadian page that says “overtime after 44 hours” is usually describing Ontario, not a UK default.

Related: overtime, national minimum wage.
