Canada’s Employment Equity Council Doesn’t Need More Agreement. It Needs a System.
Canada has launched a National Employment Equity Council to move equity from rhetoric to practice. The council is urging organizations to adopt the ISO‑30415 standard, which provides a structured framework for governance, hiring, supplier diversity and outcomes. By treating equity like quality or safety, firms can measure progress, assign clear ownership, and embed continuous improvement. The shift focuses on building systems that make equity visible, comparable and sustainable across the Canadian economy.
