Why do you need my Social Insurance Number and date of birth?

Raise is your employer, so we require your Social Insurance Number (SIN) and date of birth to ensure accurate identification and proper management of your employment records. Under the Employment Insurance Act and the Income Tax Act, employers must collect and use your SIN for payroll records.

Your SIN is essential for tax reporting purposes, as it allows us to accurately report your earnings to the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) and your SIN is used to track your earnings and ensure proper tax deductions (income tax, CPP, EI).

Additionally, your date of birth is needed to verify your eligibility to work and to ensure compliance with labour laws.

We prioritize the security of your personal information, employing stringent measures to protect it from unauthorized access.
