March 8 is International Women’s Day (IWD) 2025. This year’s theme is a call to #AccelerateAction towards full gender parity: equal participation and representation of all genders in areas like education, employment, and the economy. March 8 is also an opportunity for the City of Timmins to reflect on our efforts to promote gender parity for municipal employees. The City currently employs 420 individuals who identify as women. That’s over 50% representation.

In Canada and Ontario, gender equality is protected through policies like the federal Employment Equity Act, the Pay Equity Act, and the Ontario Human Rights Code.

The City maintains pay equity for women by evaluating and adjusting female-led positions if they fall behind their male comparators in pay. The City encourages women’s equal participation in the workplace by administering policies and benefits that help eliminate barriers for women to thrive in their careers.

• Maternity leave top-up is offered at 70-84% for the entire maternity leave. Parental leave top-up is also offered for most groups at 70-84%.
• Compassionate leave is available for all but 2 groups, which can be used to take care of immediate family members due to illness.
• Remote work – the City piloted a remote work program in 2024 that allows work from home for eligible positions. The policy is being further revised to allow eligible staff to work remotely when their child is ill or school is cancelled.
• Benefits include fertility drug and reproductive health coverage.
• IUD coverage was added in 2021 under corporate benefits. It was previously excluded under types of birth control.
• Breast prostheses and surgical bra coverage is part of the corporate benefit package.
• Employee sensitivity and bias training is available for all employees related to mental health awareness, accessibility standards, and diversity and inclusion.
• The City’s Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion policy ensures equity in all areas of employment, including recruitment and opportunities for advancement.
• Right to Disconnect policy formally recognizes an employee’s right to separate work from personal life, helps support mental well-being, and a healthy sustainable work-life balance.
• The City’s Training and Development Policy encourages training and skills development with financial contributions available for accredited courses related to career and succession planning.

By implementing policies and benefits that support gender parity and encourage equal participation of women in the workplace, the City of Timmins benefits from improved productivity and performance. That’s not only good for our employees, but good for the community we serve. It’s why we continue work to improve our diversity, equity, and inclusion practices.
