The evolution of payroll transparency

Pay transparency has undergone a significant transformation. Gone are the days when discussions around salaries were often taboo, with companies actively discouraging employees from sharing pay information and even imposing policies to maintain salary secrecy.. But things have changed. With the internet, job postings and tools where people share their wages, employees now have more access to pay information. This has sparked more conversations about compensation at work.

The demand for transparency has led to new laws in many places, aimed at promoting fair pay and tackling wage inequality head-on. As a result, the landscape around discussing salaries and ensuring fairness is shifting in response to these changes.
