The Provincial Government has launched public consultations to
solicit views on proposed regulatory requirements under the Pay Transparency Act,
2018.
In a Consultation Paper published by the Ministry
of Labour on February 19, 2019, the Government solicits written
submissions from interested individuals and organizations
concerning proposed pay transparency reporting requirements. The
regulation the Government is considering "would set out the
requirements for employers with 100 or more employees to annually
calculate, and make available, information about organizational
wage gaps and workforce composition with respect to
gender."
The Consultation Paper requests general feedback as well as
responses to specific questions about wage gap calculations,
reporting periods, and the costs associated with implementation and
compliance. Written submissions are due by April 5, 2019, and
should be emailed to [email protected]..
