Description:
Celebrities, lawmakers, the government and plaintiffs’ attorneys are focused on closing the pay gap, but that’s easier said than done. As companies face unprecedented pressure to ensure employees are paid fairly, many are turning to proactive pay analyses to find and address pay gaps. The results, though, can be paralyzing. How do we move from analysis to action? More importantly, how do we ensure we’re not creating new discrimination? Quenton Wright and Scott Pechaitis, experts from different sides of the equal-pay field, provide their observations, insights and best practices for interpreting and acting on the results of the pay analysis.
