Google's findings has forced the company to reconsider more of its human resource policies outside of pay.
Google's 2018 findings — that more male employees were being underpaid based onfor determining fair salaries — has forced the company to reconsider more of its human resource policies outside of pay.
"Our pay equity analysis ensures that compensation is fair for employees in the same job, at the same level, location and performance. But we know that's only part of the story," Google, announcing the results."Because leveling, performance ratings, and promotion impact pay, this year, we are undertaking a comprehensive review of these processes to make sure the outcomes are fair and equitable for all employees.
In other words, the fact that the analysis flagged more men being underpaid could reflect more fundamental inequities and diversity problems within the company. Google told us that many of its adjustments this year were found in the Level 4 Software Engineer position, and because there are so many employees in that job code, the number of adjustments needed tipped to being a majority male.Get the latest Google stock price
