Employment Equity | StarGarden 6 Extended HR

Summary of the Employment Equity Functionality:

The Employment Equity module tracks and reports on criteria specific to the EEO requirements issued by the government. A variety of user-defined tables allow for the definition of race/ethnic types, disabilities, age ranges, salary ranges, occupation classes, veteran status, citizenship, and languages.

Goals for employment equity planning purposes can be created based on a combination of factors, such as occupation, location, pay type, etc., then compared to the actual employee population.

Features

  • Full employee equity profile.
  • Government compliant reporting capabilities.
  • Workforce analysis for internal purposes.

Employment Equity Overview

Employment equity compliance in a complex organization means more than collecting demographic data. StarGarden 6 tracks and reports across a fully configurable set of user-defined classifications, so your reporting reflects your actual obligations rather than a fixed template.

Equity goals can be set against any combination of factors and compared directly to your real employee population. Because equity data lives in the same system as position management, compensation, and recruitment, your equity picture is always current. StarGarden 6 supports organizations managing equity obligations across multiple bargaining units, where collective agreement provisions and workforce diversity requirements apply together.

Key Capabilities

Employment Equity includes capabilities to support workforce representation tracking, equity goal-setting, government-compliant reporting, and workforce analysis across complex, multi-jurisdiction organizations.

Build Complete Employee Equity Profiles

Maintain a full equity profile for every employee, capturing the data needed for employment equity tracking, reporting, and workforce analysis. Profiles connect directly to the employee and position record, so equity data stays current as your workforce changes without separate data entry or manual updates.

Configure Classifications to Match Your Obligations

Define your own classification tables for race and ethnic types, disabilities, age ranges, salary ranges, occupation classes, veteran status, citizenship, and languages. Your organization can reflect Canadian federal and provincial requirements alongside US EEO obligations in the same system, without being locked into a fixed category set or paying for customization.

Set Equity Goals and Measure Progress

Create employment equity planning goals based on any combination of factors, including occupation, location, and pay type. Compare those goals directly against your actual employee population to identify gaps, support workforce diversity planning, and track progress over time with data drawn from your live HR records.

Produce Government-Compliant Reports

Generate the reports your organization needs for federal and provincial compliance including EEO-1, EEO-4, and VETS 100 for US requirements, and workforce representation reporting for Canadian Employment Equity Act obligations. Reports run directly from live workforce data, so there is no manual compilation before submission.

Analyze Workforce Representation in Depth

Run detailed workforce analysis across race, disability, age, minority workforce representation, position compensation, and job rank. This supports internal planning and leadership reporting as well as external compliance, going beyond what standard equity reporting requires.

Track Equity from Recruitment Through the Organization

Minority Applicant Analysis connects recruitment activity to workforce representation goals, so your equity picture covers the full employment cycle. Because equity data, position records, and recruitment history all live in one system, there is no gap between who you hired and what your workforce reports show.

How Employment Equity Works

StarGarden 6 gives HR teams a configurable, integrated system for maintaining equity profiles, tracking workforce representation against planning goals, and producing compliant reports without manual data compilation, cross-system reconciliation, or separate equity databases.

Configure and Maintain Equity Profiles

Define your classification tables to match your reporting obligations across jurisdictions. Maintain full equity profiles for every employee, connected to the position record so representation data stays accurate as your workforce changes.

Set Goals and Track Representation

Build equity planning goals based on occupation, location, pay type, and other factors. Run workforce analysis including minority workforce analysis versus actuals to compare your real employee population against those goals and identify where action is needed.

Report for Compliance and Internal Planning

Produce government-compliant reports for Canadian federal and provincial requirements and US EEO standards directly from your workforce data. Use the same integrated data for position compensation analysis, job rank analysis, and internal diversity reporting with no separate system and no export required.

Full Connectivity Across StarGarden 6

Employment Equity connects directly to the modules, processes, and workflows across StarGarden 6, so equity data reflects your live workforce rather than a separately maintained dataset.

Core HR

Employment Equity connects to Organization Management and Employee Demographics within Core HR. Position attributes, occupation classes, and salary data flow into equity analysis automatically, so workforce representation reporting reflects your actual organizational structure, including position compensation and job rank data, rather than flat headcount figures. This is particularly valuable in unionized environments where position-based pay equity and occupation class reporting intersect with collective agreement obligations.

Extended HR

Employment Equity sits within Extended HR alongside Recruitment, Employee Relations, Health and Safety, Performance Management, and Training and Development. Equity details captured during recruitment flow directly into Employment Equity reporting, and Minority Applicant Analysis connects hiring activity to workforce representation goals without any separate data entry.

Workflow

StarGarden 6's embedded workflow toolset supports the processes that affect workforce composition. Position changes, new hires, and transfers move through defined approval workflows, keeping equity-relevant data accurate and current without manual intervention between the workflow and the equity module.
