Important note
The University's Pay Transparency Report will be made public on our website annually on November 1.
The Pay Transparency Act, passed by the BC Government on May 11, 2023, places new requirements on employers to review potential systemic discrimination in the workplace, including:
- Pay secrecy: Employers must include the expected pay or pay range in public job postings
- Pay history: Employers cannot ask job applicants about what they have been paid by other employers
- Employer reprisal: Employers cannot punish an employee who asks their employer about their pay or reveals their pay to other employees or job applicants
- Pay transparency reports: Employers above certain sizes must post pay transparency reports by November 1 of each year through a phased approach
Capilano University is required to collect gender data from their employees according to the Gender and Sex Data Standard to prepare a Pay Transparency Report, a requirement of the Pay Transparency Act.
The Gender and Sex Data Standard clarifies the difference between gender and sex by providing definitions that recognize all genders and serve our diverse population.
