Pay Equity Regulations

Version of section 20 from 2021-08-31 to 2024-05-26:


Marginal note:Determination of value of work

  •  (1) An employer — or, if a pay equity committee has been established, that committee — must determine the value of the work performed in each predominantly female job class determined under section 35 of the Act and in each predominantly male job class chosen or created under subsection 19(1). The value of the work performed in those predominantly male job classes is to be determined as if the work were performed in the course of the operations of the employer.

  • Marginal note:Value already determined

    (2) For greater certainty, an employer or a pay equity committee, as the case may be, may determine that the value of the work performed in each of the predominantly female job classes determined under section 35 of the Act is the value that has already been determined by means of a method that complies with the requirements set out in sections 21 and 22.

  • Marginal note:Group of job classes

    (3) If an employer or a pay equity committee, as the case may be, treats a group of job classes as a predominantly female job class in accordance with section 38 of the Act, the value of the work performed in that job class is considered to be the value of the work performed in the individual predominantly female job class within the group that has the greatest number of employees.
