The Canadian Human Rights Tribunal’s mandate consists of a single program activity, the hearing of complaints. This involves hearing complaints of discrimination under the Canadian Human Rights Act, which includes allegations of wage disparity under section 11 of the Act, and it also involves the adjudication of cases brought under the Employment Equity Act. This adjudication process provides Canadian society with decisions that serve to guide and direct the development of policies and practices consistent with the objectives of those acts. Tribunal decisions also serve to contribute to the government’s strategic outcome of creating a diverse society that promotes linguistic duality and social inclusion, as well as to promote the advancement of a more equal society through the fair adjudication of human rights and employment equity cases.
