Subject: Feedback on Pay Transparency – Ensuring Fairness for All Ages, Races, and Experience Levels

kyla scott•2 months ago I am writing to support the proposed Pay Transparency Legislation because it is a vital step toward making Bermuda’s job market fair for everyone, regardless of age, race, or gender. Too often, people are pushed aside for entry-level opportunities because of a 'lack of experience'—but you cannot get experience without a first chance. I believe this legislation should require employers to use objective criteria that value potential and a willingness to learn.Crucially, this 'fair chance' should apply regardless of age. Whether someone is 18, 30, or 50, they should not be aged out of an opportunity just because they are starting a new career path later in life. Furthermore, as a Black woman, transparency is essential to ensure that pay and hiring decisions are based on the value of the role, not on identity. By requiring salary ranges to be posted upfront and protecting our right to discuss pay without fear of being penalised, the Government can ensure that no one is overlooked or underpaid due to hidden biases. We need this framework to ensure that career paths are determined by hard work and skill, not by unattainable requirements.

If you're gonna restore it to its former glory and keep it up to standards

kyla scott•5 months ago I would say rebuild the building and add on what you need to add on which shouldn't be a lot or too much. Add everything that the people have applied here because they're all good ideas not one of them is a terrible idea but also make it whereas people who don't mind or are willing or heck, even if you have to pay them, which would be a nice way to give some jobs to your local Bermudians. I have like some security or stuff like that I mean hey do you want more people to take care of these parks why not a person who likes gardening or wants safety of people you know or people that just live in the area? I don't want to go too far you never know.
