Dr. Margret Bjarnadottir on an episode of Global Pulse: The Global Future of Pay Equity

In this coffee talk, Julia Barnett shares her research on the words patients use to describe male and female doctors in online reviews. She finds gender bias in these reviews and talks about the HR implications.

In 2023, Washington State will be expanding its pay transparency requirements. The state already required employers to disclose a job’s minimum pay when making an applicant a job offer. But under the new law, companies will have to disclose pay ranges in the job posting itself.

In the first coffee talk of 2023, Salomé Germain Trigano tells Margrét how she helps companies get started with diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). Topics include data, the need for transparency, and how to make sure DEI efforts are sustainable.

This summer, Ireland implemented a far-reaching pay equity legislation, the Gender Pay Gap Information Act 2021. This legislation requires employers to begin reporting on their gender pay gaps. Companies will need to report differences in the mean and median pay between male and female employees. And if there’s a pay disparity, the company will need to provide a written explanation for it and outline any steps planned to close the gap.
