British Columbia heavy equipment operator rates

Heavy equipment operator charge-out is the labor line that rides with the iron. It is not the machine rate. OT and shift premiums belong on the rate sheet, not in a public median. In British Columbia, the heavy equipment operator central reference is $115 CAD/hr (range $100 CAD to $130 CAD, as of 2026-08). That figure is a reference estimate for labor charge-out.
