Description

Pay Equity and Salary Transparency Webinar

Presented by David Weaver, CCA

Salary transparency is no longer optional. New state laws, rising employee expectations, and growing competition for talent have put compensation conversations squarely in the hands of frontline managers. This webinar gives managers and HR professionals the knowledge and confidence to navigate those conversations fairly, consistently, and in compliance with evolving requirements.

Through practical examples and real-world guidance, attendees will learn:

  • The fundamentals of pay equity — what it is, what it isn't, and the legitimate factors that should drive every pay decision
  • How compensation works — salary ranges, compa-ratios, market positioning strategies, and the factors that influence pay
  • The new reality of salary transparency — current laws, levels of transparency, and what managers are responsible for communicating
  • How to handle real conversations — explaining pay and ranges, responding to employee concerns, and addressing tough questions without speculation
  • How to make defensible decisions — avoiding unconscious bias in promotions, starting pay, and performance-based rewards

Attendees will leave with a clear action plan for building employee trust and supporting equitable, transparent compensation practices within their teams.
