Equal pay is about all of us
Today, on International Equal Pay Day, we are calling on all business leaders in Canada to be pay equity champions and to continue to take the necessary action towards closing the gender pay gap. Federally regulated employers were required to post their first pay equity plan on September 3, 2024, and we are encouraged to see organizations demonstrating their commitment to pay equity.
