• 11 (1) The factor referred to in paragraph 49(1)(d) of the Act and the factor referred to in paragraph 28(d) are determined by the formula

  ((A × B) − C) ÷ D

  where

  A

  is the number of predominantly female job classes within the band;

  B

  is,

  • (a) if there is more than one predominantly male job class within the band, the average compensation associated with the predominantly male job classes within the band,

  • (b) if there is only one predominantly male job class within the band, the compensation associated with that job class, or

  • (c) if there are no predominantly male job classes within the band, the compensation calculated under paragraph 49(1)(b) of the Act or paragraph 28(b), as the case may be;

  C

  is the sum of the compensation associated with the predominantly female job classes within the band; and

  D

  is the sum of the differences, for each predominantly female job class within the band whose compensation is less than the value determined for B, between the value of B and the compensation associated with the job class.

• Marginal note:Clarification

  (2) In the calculation of the factor referred to in paragraph 28(d), references in subsection (1) to a predominantly male job class are to be read as references to a predominantly male job class chosen or created, as the case may be, under subsection 19(1).
