Pay Equity Compliance Made Simple and Effective

Are you confident your organization meets pay equity requirements? The Pay Equity Act is designed to eliminate wage gaps in female-dominated roles. It applies to all employers with an average of 10 or more employees, whether in the private, public, or parapublic sectors.

More than 150,000 organizations across Quebec, Ontario, and federally are required to comply. In Ontario, maintenance evaluations must be conducted regularly. In Quebec and on the federal level, they are required every five years.

Why Comply?

  • It is a legal obligation
