Disaggregated data
Recommendation 1:
Pay transparency would help promote pay equality in BC by highlighting pay gaps that exist within firms and encouraging them to close those gaps. Importantly, this type of legislation provides a foundation for further action by mandating the release of the data needed to identify pay discrimination. The information and data can then be used to inform future policies. In contrast, pay equity legislation would help to address the systematic undervaluation of women’s work by analyzing the pay and value of jobs traditionally segregated by gender. Proactive pay equity is a complementary policy to pay transparency and can further reduce the pay gap by ensuring that people working in female-dominated occupational groups are being paid the same as other occupations of equivalent value.
With that in mind, our research indicates that for any type of pay legislation that BC chooses to adopt, the effect on the gender pay gap is dependent on the details of policy design and adopted tools. Key elements include clear reporting requirements, sufficient guidance for businesses, and a well-funded oversight body.

Recommendation 202:
We call upon all governments, service providers, and those involved in research to modify data collection methods to:
- Increase accurate, comprehensive statistical data on 2SLGBTQQIA individuals, especially to record the experiences of trans-identified individuals and individuals with non-binary gender identities.
- Eliminate “either-or” gender options and include gender-inclusive, gender neutral, or non-binary options – for example, an “X-option” – on reporting gender in all contexts, such as application and intake forms, surveys, Status cards, census data and other data collection.
- Increase precision in data collection to recognize and capture the diversity of 2SLGBTQQIA communities: for example, the experiences of Two-Spirit women/ lesbians, and differentiations between Two-Spirit and trans identified individuals and between trans-masculine and trans-feminine experiences.

Recommendation 168:
We call upon all governments to ensure the collection of disaggregated data in relation to Inuit to monitor and report on progress and the effectiveness of laws, policies, and services designed to uphold the social, economic, political, and cultural rights and well-being of Inuit women, girls, and 2SLGBTQQIA people. Monitoring and data collection must recognize Inuit self-determination and must be conducted in partnership with Inuit. Within any and all mechanisms established to oversee and monitor the implementation of the National Inquiry’s recommendations, we call upon all governments to ensure the equitable and meaningful involvement of Inuit governments and representative organizations, including those of Inuit women, girls, and and 2SLGBTQQIA people.
