Employment Equity

At Ahearn & Soper Inc., we believe that a diverse workforce reflective of the markets we operate in is a source of strength and provides us with a competitive advantage. As a result we have a commitment both to employment and pay equity. Employment equity is a commitment to a fair chance for everyone in the workplace. It strives to ensure that no one is denied an opportunity for employment or advancement for reasons unrelated to their abilities. Pay equity is a commitment to pay all workers equally for work of equal value. It endeavours to ensure that work traditionally done by women is not undervalued and underpaid.

Through our equity programs and initiatives, we are working to remove barriers to employment for people who are usually underrepresented in Canada’s workforce – Aboriginal people, people with disabilities, visible minorities, women - and to ensure that our pay scales for all positions are based on the real value of the work for each job
