From compensation benchmarking to workplace investigations, CG Hylton has served municipalities since 1981. We know the public employer rules, the AUMA data, and what holds up under scrutiny.
Municipal HR operates by different rules than the private sector. Collective agreements, FOIP compliance, council oversight, and compensation benchmarks that have to survive public comparison — these aren't edge cases, they're the baseline. After 45 years of work with municipalities, we understand how the environment actually functions. No generic advice. No learning curve at your expense.
