Night shift workers will also see higher earnings, with the night shift premium rising to $160 per hour in 2025 and $200 per hour in 2026.

Meal allowances for eligible workers will be increased wnd employees will be entitled to eight paid sick days per year. Hourly paid workers will also benefit from an improved vacation allowance, which has moved from four percent of the previous year’s gross earnings to six percent. “A lot of workers will receive an increase,” Griffith said, adding that many employees are expected to feel the impact of the agreement in the coming weeks.
