Pay Equity Regulations — 12
Calculation — equal line method 12 (1) With respect to a predominantly female job class, the factor referred to in paragraph 50(1)(c) of the Act and the factor referred to in paragraph 29 (1)(c) are determined by the formula ((A × B) ÷ C) + (D – (E × B)) where A is determined by the formula F ÷ G where F is the absolute value of the difference between the compensation associated with the predominantly female job class and the compensation associated with a predominantly male job class, were such a job class located on the male regression line, in which the value of the work performed is equal to that of the predominantly female job class, and G is the compensation associated with such a predominantly male job class; B is determined by the formula ((H − I) − (J × K)) ÷ (L − (M × K)) where H is the sum of the products obtained by multiplying, for each predominantly female job class, the value of work performed in the job class by the compensation associated with a predominantly male job class, were such a job class located on the male regression line, in which the value of the work performed is equal to that of the predominantly female job class, I is the sum of the products obtained by multiplying, for each predominantly female job class, the value of work performed in the job class by the compensation associated with that job class, J is determined by the formula (P – Q) ÷ R where P is the sum of the compensation associated with predominantly male job classes, were such job classes located on the male regression line, in which the value of the work performed is equal to that of the predominantly female job classes, Q is the sum of the compensation associated with the predominantly female job classes, and R is the sum of the absolute values of the differences, for each predominantly female job class that is located below the male regression line, between the compensation associated with the job class and the compensation associated with a predominantly male job class, were such a job class located on the male regression line, in which the value of the work performed is equal to that of the predominantly female job class; K is the sum of the products obtained by multiplying, for each predominantly female job class that is located below the male regression line, the value of the work performed in the job class by the absolute value of the difference between the compensation associated with the job class and the compensation associated with a predominantly male job class, were such a job class located on the male regression line, in which the value of the work performed is equal to that of the predominantly female job class, L is the sum of the products obtained by multiplying, for each predominantly female job class that is located below the male regression line, the value of the work performed in that job class by the quotient calculated for the job class using the formula set out in A in this subsection, M is determined by the formula (N ÷ O) where N is the sum of the quotients calculated using the formula set out in A in this subsection, for each predominantly female job class that is located below the male regression line, and O is the sum of the absolute values of the differences between the compensation associated with each predominantly female job class that is located below the male regression line and the compensation associated with a predominantly male job class, were such a job class located on the male regression line, in which the value of the work performed is equal to that of the predominantly female job class; C is an amount equal to the difference referred to in paragraph 50(1)(c) of the Act or paragraph 29 (1)(c), as the case may be; D is the value determined for J in this subsection; and E is the value determined for M in this subsection. Job class chosen or created (2) In the calculation of the factor referred to in paragraph 29 (1)(c), a reference in subsection (1) to a predominantly male job class is to be
