The 2026 reporting threshold
By November 1, 2026, provincially regulated employers with 50 or more employees working in British Columbia must complete a pay-transparency report and publish it on a publicly accessible website as soon as practicable.
The employee count is taken as of January 1 of the reporting year and includes B.C.-based employees working on site or remotely.
What the report involves
British Columbia’s process covers employee gender information, reporting data and publication. The province provides a reporting tool, but the legal requirement is the completed public report. The 2026 phase is the final step in a rollout that began with government and large Crown corporations before moving to private-sector employers with 1,000, then 300, and now 50 employees.
