### Deftridge rate by level

| Level | Per hour | Per month at 5 h/week |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Senior (country floor) | CA$45 | CA$980 |
| Manager | CA$50 | CA$1,080 |
| Director | CA$60 | CA$1,300 |

### Against the Canada rate

The typical rate in Ontario is CA$45 an hour against CA$45 nationally: **in line with the national rate**. Tasks that are remote pay the national rate for the company's location, so a remote task can pay more than a local one.

## Working on the side in Ontario

What to check before you take a task next to a full-time job. Orientation only; none of it is legal or tax advice.

Checked on official pages, November 2026

- Since 25 October 2021 the Employment Standards Act prohibits employers from entering into a non-compete agreement with an employee, with two exceptions: the sale of a business where the seller becomes an employee of the purchaser, and executives (CEO, president, CAO, COO, CFO, CIO, chief legal officer, chief HR officer, chief corporate development officer, or any other chief executive position). Agreements made before that date are not affected. [Source](https://www.ontario.ca/document/your-guide-employment-standards-act-0/non-compete-agreements)
