Data on the diversity of the current Canadian technology employee population is collected by TAP Network members through a confidential employee self-reporting process. This data is then reported to Mercer on a confidential basis through TAP Network’s Annual Salary Survey.
Now in its fifth year, almost 200 Canadian tech companies participated in this year’s survey, providing industry wide data on Equity, Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging policies and practices and employee representation. The dataset continues to grow each year, as more tech companies measure diversity within their workforces.
45% of participating organizations reported that they conduct analyses to identify pay gaps for equity deserving groups, with an additional 32% considering this practice.
The report revealed that women, Indigenous peoples and people with disabilities remain significantly underrepresented in the sector.
