It has long been no secret that, on average, a woman receives a salary lower than a man. Therefore, companies around the world are strengthening the policy of pay transparency as a way to communicate information related to pay to employees.
Women in the EU earn an average of 14 percent less per hour than men, and the bloc is currently negotiating legislation to require companies to be more transparent about these gender pay gaps.
Research has shown that pay transparency reduces the pay gap. But it’s not because women’s wages are going up, but rather because men’s wages are going down, according to a study in Denmark.
“There’s no way that you can both increase females’ wages and men are equally happy and the firm earns more because something magic happens,” Morten Bennedsen, an economist and professor at the University of Copenhagen who took part in the study, told Euronews. Next.
In companies that practice pay transparency, women are not only more likely to be recruited and retained, but they are also more likely to be promoted. Employees are more likely to stay with the company, and pay transparency also helps attract new talent.
In the absence of pay transparency, employees, especially younger ones, are more likely to leave the company within six months, according to software and data company Payscale. Poor pay transparency can also seriously damage a company’s reputation.
A new study found that payment transparency also benefits mental health. Because women used fewer antidepressants when the transparency of payment rules was applied.
While many companies advocate pay transparency, they are concerned about costs and legal hurdles.
