What you earn:$11.00 per hour for 45 hours a week.  Your host must take deductions off your cheque for taxes, and a small amount ($350) to pay for your food and lodging.  Inbound Trainees will make approximately $1400 CAD (R14 000.00) per month in nett pay.  You can apply to get the income tax back that was deducted from your pay cheque when you leave Canada. • Usually 1 person per farm, unless farms big then 2 – 3. • Overtime rate at $13.00 per hour. • Trainee works 5 – 9 hours per day, starting 8am to 6pm with an hour off for lunch.
