À propos de cet audio

 Welcome to Level the Paying Field where we explore issues related to economics, equity, women, work and money. This series of conversations explores topics impacting women working in Ontario and is published by Ontario’s Pay Equity Office. Part of our inspiration for launching this series was how, in the midst of a global pandemic which disproportionally impacted women around the world, global multilateral organizations came together to inaugurate the first ever International Equal Pay Day on September 18th 2020. This was an initiative led by United Nations members including Australia, Canada, Germany, Iceland, New Zealand, Panama, South Africa and Switzerland with a total of 105 UN member states co-sponsoring the resolution to establish September 18th as “International Equal Pay Day”.
Through this series, we hope to elevate the equity conversation to make the world a more equitable place for women to work, live, and thrive, and support closing the gender wage gap.Podcast in English only.

Bienvenue dans le site de la série Équité salariale: des règles de rémunération équitables où nous explorons des enjeux qui concernent l’économie, l’équité, les femmes, le travail et l’argent. Cette série de discussions explore des sujets ayant des implications pour les femmes qui travaillent en Ontario et est diffusée par le Bureau de l’équité salariale. Ce qui nous a en partie inspirés pour le lancement de cette série a été l’initiative d’organisations multilatérales internationales qui, durant une pandémie mondiale marquée par des répercussions disproportionnées sur les femmes autour du globe, se sont unies pour inaugurer la toute première Journée internationale de l’égalité de rémunération le 18 septembre 2020. Cette initiative a été menée par des membres des Nations Unies, dont l’Australie, le Canada, l’Allemagne, l’Islande, la Nouvelle Zélande, le Panama, l’Afrique du Sud et la Suisse, avec au total 105 États membres des Nations Unies coparrainant la résolution qui fixe au 18 septembre la Journée internationale de l’égalité de rémunération.

Dans le cadre de cette série, nous espérons rehausser la discussion sur l’équité pour faire de la planète un lieu plus équitable où les femmes peuvent travailler, vivre et s’épanouir et pour favoriser la fermeture de l’écart salarial entre les sexes.Suivez nous sur LinkedIn et Twitter pour obtenir des mises à jour. Podcast en anglais seulement.

  • Beyond the Gallery Wall: Advocating for Gender Equity in the Arts

    Beyond the Gallery Wall: Advocating for Gender Equity in the Arts
    Jun 3 2025
    When you walk into an art gallery, whose stories are being told—and whose are left out?

    Kadie Philp sits down with artist and mother Alexa Mazzarello to explore the persistent gender disparities in the art world, from pay inequity to the underrepresentation of female artists in major collections and leadership roles.

    They discuss the long legacy of feminist artists challenging the status quo, the unique struggles of mother artists, and how collectives like the 44.4 Mother Artist Collective are pushing for change.

    Alexa also shares her personal experience navigating the art world as a mother and how her project Failure to Progress sheds light on gendered biases in healthcare.

    This conversation is a powerful reminder of why representation in art matters—and what’s at stake when women’s voices are left out of the picture.

    Listen For:
    1:30 The difficulty of quantifying underrepresentation in the art world
    4:59 Making History, Not Just Art
    9:56 How the 44.4 Mother Artist Collective empowers women artists

  • Level Up: Women’s Role in the Gaming Industry

    Level Up: Women’s Role in the Gaming Industry
    May 27 2025
    When you picture a gamer, who comes to mind? If a woman wasn’t your first thought, it’s time to rethink the stereotype.

    Women now make up nearly half of all gamers in Canada, and their growing presence is reshaping the industry—not just as players, but as developers, designers, and decision-makers.

    Kadie Philp talks with Dr. Andrea Braithwaite, senior teaching professor at Ontario Tech University and Vice President of the Canadian Game Studies Association, to explore the evolution of female representation in video games, the barriers women still face in the industry, and what needs to change for true gender equity.

    From the early Girls’ Games Movement of the ‘90s to today’s fight for fair pay and leadership roles, they discuss how gaming has progressed—and where it still has a long way to go.

    Listen For:
    10:59 Women in Game Development: Still a Boys' Club?
    20:28 Women Are Playing—So Why Don’t We See Them?
    26:44 Gender Discrimination Lawsuits: Did They Change Anything?
