How to use it

Your first 15 minutes

Follow these 4 steps to prepare, check, and log each posting.

  1. Check whether the rules apply: 25 or more employees in Ontario, and a publicly advertised external posting.

  2. Set the pay range in the tracker (range within CAD 50,000; the rule does not apply above CAD 200,000). Draft the posting from the template, adding the AI line and vacancy status, and excluding any Canadian-experience requirement.

  3. Review the finished posting with the free checker and address anything it flags before the posting goes live.

  4. Log the posting, notify each interviewed candidate within 45 days, and retain the posting and applications for three years. Have counsel review unusual circumstances.
