Grants and Contributions
About this information
In June 2016, as part of the Open Government Action Plan, the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (TBS) committed to increasing the transparency and usefulness of grants and contribution data and subsequently launched the Guidelines on the Reporting of Grants and Contributions Awards, effective April 1, 2018.
The rules and principles governing government grants and contributions are outlined in the Treasury Board Policy on Transfer Payments. Transfer payments are transfers of money, goods, services or assets made from an appropriation to individuals, organizations or other levels of government, without the federal government directly receiving goods or services in return, but which may require the recipient to provide a report or other information subsequent to receiving payment. These expenditures are reported in the Public Accounts of Canada. The major types of transfer payments are grants, contributions and \'other transfer payments\'.
Included in this category, but not to be reported under proactive disclosure of awards, are (1) transfers to other levels of government such as Equalization payments as well as Canada Health and Social Transfer payments. (2) Grants and contributions reallocated or otherwise redistributed by the recipient to third parties; and (3) information that would normally be withheld under the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act.

Entreprise égalitaire certification in the Bécancour, Nicolet-Yamaska and L’Érable RCMs
WP230413
Through this 19-month systemic change project, Services intégrés pour l’emploi will top-up an initial Enterprise égalitaire certification project to advance women’s economic security and prosperity. The initial project, which focused on the Arthabaska RCM, will be extended to the Bécancour, Nicolet-Yamaska and L’Érable RCMs. It will address systemic barriers faced by women in non-traditional fields or seeking employment in male-dominated sectors. To that end, the project will raise awareness among businesses and assist them through, among other things, policy reviews and training, so they can obtain the Entreprise égalitaire certification recognizing that they apply values of equality between men and women, fight harassment, welcome their employees in an inclusive manner and provide ergonomic workstations. In addition, Services intégrés pour l’emploi will highlight businesses that are making efforts to better welcome and integrate women.
