It's time to make pay equity central to pay strategy
New hires, promotions, and internal transfers can make it difficult to keep a pulse on pay equity within your organization, but modern compensation software from Payscale can help. Easily monitor salaries, close pay gaps, and build credibility with your workforce using Payscale Pay Equity.

Pay equity must be managed continuously
Pay equity is often perceived as a project that begins with an audit to measure potential pay gaps between employees. Pay disparities between workers doing the same job must be defensibly tied to compensable factors—experience, skills, location, and responsibilities—not race, gender, or other protected characteristics.
However, it is better to think of pay equity as an ongoing strategic program to attract, retain, and engage talent that ensures fair pay through continuous monitoring. Because organizations are always changing, pay equity needs to be assessed with:
- Every hire
- Every pay raise
- Every promotion
- Every change to the organization

The latest in pay transparency legislation
The conversation around pay transparency has been largely driven by recent legislation being enacted in key cities and states across the country including New York City, Colorado, and California. While this legislation is driven by local governments, it’s effects are far-reaching with many of the laws requiring employers to post ranges even if they have just a few employees in that state or city. The team at Payscale has made it our mission to track this legislation and help our customers adapt to it.
