Questions and answers

Why is Michael MacDougall on the executive compensation list?

BC Hydro paid Michael MacDougall $92,846 in 2024. British Columbia’s public employers must disclose everyone they paid $125,000 or more in a fiscal year, under the Public Sector Employers Act.

What is “total compensation”?

The one pay figure British Columbia publishes for each person for the fiscal year, shown as published. British Columbia does not publish taxable benefits separately, so none are shown. How the lists work

What do the comparisons mean?

Ranks and shares are among people on the same year’s list only: those with the same title, those at the same employer, or everyone listed. People paid under $125,000 are not on the list, so they are not counted.

How do I report a mistake or ask for a record to be removed?
