Saskatchewan’s labour market showed significant strength in March 2026, recording the lowest unemployment rate in Canada at 5%, well below the national average of 6.7%.

The province added 15,000 full-time jobs year over year and saw a monthly increase of 5,800 positions. Immigration and Career Training Minister Eric Schmalz highlighted the growth resulting from strategic industry partnerships designed to meet the demands of a growing economy.

Major gains were reported in healthcare, personal services, and finance, while the province's two largest cities, Regina and Saskatoon, both saw substantial employment boosts. Additionally, Saskatchewan's youth unemployment rate remains among the lowest in the country, further signalling a resilient economic outlook.
