Performance and Accountability
Public Salary Disclosure
In accordance with the 1996, Public Sector Salary Disclosure Act, Ontario is committed to ensuring transparency and accountability in the public sector.
Organizations receiving public funding from the Province of Ontario must disclose the names, positions, salaries and taxable benefits of employees earning $100,000 or more within the calendar year.
We believe that by making this information available, we encourage transparency, facilitate informed discussions, and ensure that the public has access to information on how taxpayer dollars are being spent in the healthcare sector.
