ONTARIO’S PAY EQUITY OFFICE RELEASED THE SECOND SEASON OF ITS AWARD-WINNING PODCAST SERIES LEVEL THE PAYING FIELD
Exploring topics related to economics, equity, women, work and wage equity, in this season of Level the Paying Field, the Pay Equity Office of Ontario (PEO) convenes leading experts and renowned researchers to uncover the hidden biases that contribute to unexplained pay gaps.
“Gender bias is pervasive in our society” says Kadie Ward, Commissioner and CAO of the Pay Equity Office. “From who does what work, to parenting, to unpaid care work, we can see gender coded expectations everywhere and these create inequalities generally and in the labour market.”
Through the series, PEO seeks to highlight how data and research can seed meaningful conversations around gender inequality and drive change. “Each of our guests have experience in researching, analysing, creating and adapting policies to help address underlying stereotypes,” says Ward. “We’ve pulled this group of experts together to uncover the invisible drivers of the gender wage gap and, more importantly, shed light on how to confront and eliminate them.”
Join the Pay Equity Office in elevating the equity conversation to make the world a more equitable place for women to work, live and thrive and support closing the gender wage gap. Watch episodes of Level the Paying Field at www.levelthepayingfield.ca or listen wherever you download your podcasts.
