Please join us for the Second Annual CDL D&I and Women’s Caucus Joint Program. This year it will be an in-depth discussion on Pay Equity in the legal profession.

Topics will include the following:

• Women lawyers’ inequitable treatment and compensation at law firms and legal departments in Canada
• What remedies are available? 
• Pay equity legislation?  Complaints to provincial Human Rights Tribunals? 
• A discussion of the shortcomings of both remedies, including a brief overview of pay equity principles, the federal and provincial Pay Equity Acts, and the human rights complaint process.
• A brief review of recent decisions where women have successfully challenged their inequitable pay.    

If litigation and H.R. complaints don’t work, what alternative strategies are available?
