Overview of the Pay Equity Act

Mar 08, 2023

On August 31, 2021, the Pay Equity Act, which introduced a proactive pay equity regime for federally regulated workplaces, came into effect. Under this regime, workplaces with 10 or more employees are required to proactively examine their compensation practices. This requirement helps to ensure that employers are providing equal pay to men and women doing work that is of equal value. More simply put, this means that if two different jobs contribute equal value to an employer’s operations, then the employees in those jobs should receive equal pay.
