This is public-sector compensation disclosure (remuneration and expenses) as published by covered organizations. It is not a general wage survey. Reported amounts may include overtime or expenses; these figures are not typical base salaries. Role matching uses published title keywords and can include related roles.
No records match this role in the selected complete reporting year. This does not mean the occupation is absent or unpaid; disclosure coverage and job-title wording vary.
Primary Care Paramedic base pay grid
Front-line Primary Care Paramedic (entry step to top step) at a representative employer per province; base rate only, excludes overtime and premiums. Standard work-years differ (BC ~1,950h vs ON/MB ~2,184h), so annual figures are not directly comparable. Advanced Care Paramedics earn materially more everywhere.
