Quotes:
“I think organizations are going to have to develop processes and systems to be able to compile a more complete data. It's not going to happen overnight . . . If they're going to continue to do pay equity analyses credibly, they're going to have to make a commitment to obtaining that data all the time.”

“I think US companies, and I think employers generally, are probably going to have to start helping employees understand how they're using their data.”
