Canadian Union of Public Employees, Local 2577 v. Children’s Aid Society of the County of Lanark and the Town of Smith Falls, 2006 CanLII 61259 (ON PEHT) 2006-01-05 —The new collective agreement between the Union and the Employer implemented that overtime for full and part-time employees is paid only when the employees work 2 ½ hours past 35 hours of work. The Union argued that this overtime threshold widened the wage gap as the part-time workers have seen their wages reduced. The Tribunal found that the Union failed to establish a wage gap as it did not assert how the affected employees are only part of a female job class while the compensation remained unchanged for the comparable male job class. The Tribunal also concluded that not all changes in compensation amounts to a violation of the Act.
