Question

In canada what is the maximum hours some one can work for part time?

Answer 1

35, I think.

40 is full time but I would consider 35 full time too

Normal part-time job is 20-26 hours.

Answer 2

In Canada part time work does not necessarily mean a specific number of hours per week. Part time work can have you working 40 hours one week and then only 17 hours the next depending on how busy your employer is. A job like retail where you work say 2 nights and Saturday would give you an average of about 16 - 20 hours per week. It's all interpretive depending on your employer, there is no hard and fast rule as long as you are being properly compensated.
