Updates to B.C.’s Pay Transparency Act June 26 2024

Employers in British Columbia with 1,000 or more employees will be required to submit pay transparency reports under the Pay Transparency Act by November 1, 2024. Employers with 300+ employees will have to report by November 1, 2025, and those with 50+ employees by November 1, 2026.

Employers must collect gender information from employees (on a voluntary basis), report on gender-based differences in pay, and publish the reports annually. B.C.’s online reporting tool can be used to generate the pay transparency report. Employers must also ensure ongoing compliance and provide employees with the opportunity to update their gender information. Employers may not include any information related to a gender category in which there are fewer than 10 employees.
