only applies to federally regulated workplaces

Oh, so not all jobs need to conform to this minimum.

federal sets the minimum standards and provinces can improve upon them as they see fit.

Oh. So all jobs in a province need to confirm to this minimum, even if provinces may add benefits on top of the minimum.

If those reads are correct, they partially conflict.

Yes, those two statements conflict as written. I think the first statement is in error. The federal regulations apply to all workplaces not just those not governed provincially. The provinces (and unions, and other agreements) can improve upon them. I think that federally regulated businesses have the option to follow the regulations of the province in which they operate, but, in my experience, few do.
