Yes.
Another very important point in the ability to manage pay equity is the determination of the term “establishment” or “pay equity unit”. We believe that the most appropriate unit for determining pay equity is the bargaining unit, as determined in the certification under the Canada Labour Code.
Employers of course do not unilaterally set wages, benefits, and working conditions for their unionized employees. Thus each collective agreement constitutes an appropriate pay equity bargaining unit. FETCO believes that this is how it should remain.
