CALIFORNIA EQUAL PAY PLEDGE

The Pledge:

We are committed to taking action to close the gender pay gap.

By signing the Equal Pay Pledge, we acknowledge that pay discrimination is not just a women’s issue, but also harms families and the state’s economy. We understand that our business plays a crucial role in promoting a culture of pay equity.

By signing your company commits to:

Conduct an annual company-wide gender pay analysis;
Review hiring and promotion processes and procedures to reduce unconscious bias and structural barriers to equality; and
Promote equal pay best practices, such as increased pay transparency, training on retaliation protections, and training for supervisors and managers on pay equity laws.
