Pay Equity Hearings Tribunal
PEHT Case No: 2872-19-PE
Tina Lahtinen, Applicant v Corporation of the City of Thunder Bay, Respondent
BEFORE: M. David Ross, Chair
DECISION OF THE TRIBUNAL: June 18, 2020
This is an application under the Pay Equity Act, R.S.O. 1990, c.P.7 as amended (“the Act”), in which the applicant has asserted that her job, Supervisor, Financial Services, was not evaluated properly, and that a different male comparator should have been chosen by the respondent.
The respondent has requested the Tribunal to dismiss this matter on a prima facie basis. The applicant has filed response submissions to that request in accordance with the Tribunal’s decisions. By letter dated June 16, 2020, the respondent asserted that the applicant still has not established a prima facie case after reviewing the additional submissions.
The applicant shall have until July 9, 2020 to file any final submissions that it would like the Tribunal to consider in response to the respondent’s June 16, 2020 submissions. The respondent is directed to file nothing further with respect to this preliminary issue, unless the Tribunal directs otherwise at a later date.
I will consider any submissions received in due course.
