“Equal pay” is far from being a “women’s issue”. Pay gaps happen for all sorts of reasons, and to men, too. A recent study revealed that the #1 response to discovering a gap is to look for another job.
One of the savviest calls an employer can make is having equitable and future-proof compensation practices, especially in NJ’s progressive compliance landscape. Integral to executive support is an understanding of “the business case” – the levers through which your practices can either deliver powerful ROIs or cause an expensive and newsworthy disaster.
We’re also in an era of paradigms shifts (ex: increasing transparency in job postings) and among NJ Gen Z job candidates:
· 87% care more about “fair compensation” than other “perks” (ex: refreshments on site, wellness programming, etc.)
· 68% believe that an organization with pay gaps does not have a strong DEI commitment
