"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"5873522\" data-originallang=\"en\">Oh, yes, I believe so. That is definitely one of the tools in the proverbial tool box. When we start as a society, as people, saying it's not really fair that somebody who is doing the same work\u2014it could be in the same ministry\u2014is sitting in a cubicle beside somebody who is receiving more pay. Why is that fair? Well, it's not, so it goes to precarious employment why some people who are working, regardless of gender, have full benefits, pensions, sick leave and full-time pay as opposed to the person sitting beside them who is not receiving them. Pay equity is a move that has been made in the right direction. I would certainly support that the work of pay equity does underline and highlight the need for a definition of precarious employment.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"5873522\" data-originallang=\"en\">Oui, certainement. C'est assur\u00e9ment l'un des outils \u00e0 notre disposition. Nous convenons tous au sein de notre soci\u00e9t\u00e9 qu'il n'est pas vraiment \u00e9quitable que deux voisins de bureau qui accomplissent le m\u00eame travail au sein d'un m\u00eame minist\u00e8re ne soient pas r\u00e9mun\u00e9r\u00e9s de la m\u00eame mani\u00e8re. On ne peut pas en pareil cas parler d'\u00e9quit\u00e9, car il s'agit plut\u00f4t de pr\u00e9carit\u00e9 d'emploi alors qu'une de ces personnes, peu importe son sexe, re\u00e7oit un plein salaire et b\u00e9n\u00e9ficie de toute la gamme des avantages sociaux, notamment pour ce qui est de la pension et des cong\u00e9s de maladie, alors que ce n'est pas le cas pour le ou la coll\u00e8gue qui travaille \u00e0 ses c\u00f4t\u00e9s. L'\u00e9quit\u00e9 salariale est un pas dans la bonne direction. Je serais certes pr\u00eat \u00e0 affirmer que les efforts d\u00e9ploy\u00e9s en mati\u00e8re d'\u00e9quit\u00e9 salariale t\u00e9moignent bien de la n\u00e9cessit\u00e9 de pouvoir compter sur une d\u00e9finition de l'emploi pr\u00e9caire. </p>"
