Yes, an employer can pay less for training hours, but it must comply with labor laws and regulations regarding minimum wage and employee compensation. If the training is considered mandatory and is part of the employee's job duties, they typically must be compensated at least at the minimum wage rate. However, if the training is voluntary or not directly related to the employee's current job, different compensation rules may apply. It's essential for employers to clearly communicate their policies and ensure compliance with applicable labor laws.

In Canada What is the minimum hours an employer has to pay you if your sent home early?

It is more the minimum amount of money that an employer has to pay versus the number of hours. If an employee works less than 3 hours than the employer is required to pay the employee an amount equal to 3 hours of work at the minimum wage in the respective province. So for example, in Alberta the minimum wage is $8.80/ hours X 3 hours is $26.40, so if the employee's hourly rate is in excess of the minimum wage, for example $12.00, than the employer is only required to pay 2.2 hours, which is $26.40 / 12.

If not, then your employer can give you as much or as little time, and as much or as little pay, as he feels like giving you. And then, you have three choices of how to respond: 1). Comply 2). Negotiate 3). Walk.

No. An employer act is never discrimination unless there is a tangible employment action - the victim gets fired, demoted, suspended, pay cut, unwelcome transfer. Giving someone else training is not tangible harm. No violation possible.
