About the Disclosure

Manitoba's compensation disclosure publishes a single total compensation figure per employee — it does not break out base salary, overtime, or bonuses separately. The threshold for inclusion is $85,000 (raised from $75,000 in 2023). These figures represent T4 taxable income and do not include employer-paid pension contributions or health benefits, so actual total compensation packages are typically 15–25% higher.
