How to prepare to maintain pay equity?

Your company has been told it needs to conduct its pay equity maintenance exercise soon? Be careful. First, take a close look at your company’s pay equity file as it relates to predominantly feminine or masculine roles. Not all companies have the same deadlines! Once you’ve confirmed your company’s exact obligations, it’s time to take action!

• Who will take the lead as project manager?
• Are you obliged to form a committee or launch a participatory process?
• What is your exact date for gathering data?
• Have you put together all events that have an impact on remuneration?
• What process will you use to evaluate jobs?
• Do you have your most recent workers compensation reports?

If you don’t have all the answers, turn to a professional to support and train you for the future.
