Operationalizing Pay Transparency: Driving Your Organization To Be a Pay Equity Leader

Cooley partner Ryan Vann was a featured speaker.

Pay transparency legislation has paved the way for employees to negotiate fair payment, but employers are viewing the effects of these new laws as a double-edged sword that brings business ramifications. While it can be problematic from a hiring and budgeting standpoint, general counsels need to start thinking outside the box in order to level expectations and minimize the risk of a fallout between workers and companies. Our expert panelists discussed solutions to these potential problems, how to better foster conversations around pay transparency and lean into these efforts in order to start seeing real change in the push for pay equity and inclusivity.
