Tips for conducting an equal pay audit
Posted on 17 May 2013
- Boost your understanding about what an equal pay audit entails.
- Consider how much data you have available and more importantly the quality of it. Will it fulfil the requirements of a basic audit?
- Determine the information you have and do as much as you can.
- Analyse the data by grade, by department, by division, by location, by job family, part time versus full time and so on.
- What will you do with the results? Don’t let it be just a paper/PC exercise.
Remember, this is not just the right thing to do, it makes business sense. An organisation that is clear and transparent in its approach to equal pay will attract and retain top talent.
