10 Resources to Help You Attract & Retain Talent

Everything you need to get started…

At 3R Strategy, we’re pretty into pay transparency. It’s sort of our thing. Over the years, we’ve produced innumerable resources on the subject, from blogs and whitepapers to videos, infographics—and now a book!

Here you can access everything you could possibly need to know about pay transparency: what it is, why it’s important, and how to implement more of it in your organisation.

Why is pay transparency important?

Pay transparency is not necessarily about disclosing the salaries of employees, but instead being clear and open about how pay decisions are made. It fosters a shared understanding of an organisation’s reward principles and makes it easier for employees to see how their role fits.

Because pay transparency encourages employers to be more open about the purpose of pay and how these decisions are made, it can also help to reduce the gender pay gap.

Can pay transparency lead to pay equity?

Often when we think about pay transparency, we’re only thinking about pay disclosure. In this article about pay transparency and equity, we discuss whether publishing salaries is a good idea and introduce our five-point transparency scale.

Our approach to pay transparency

When we talk about pay transparency, the focus is usually on what everyone is earning, but how and why pay decisions are made is a lot more meaningful. People want to know they’re being treated fairly and consistently.

This scale divides the ‘what’, ‘how’ and ‘why’ of pay into five steps, starting with no transparency on the left and moving to complete transparency on the right. It helps you identify where you are, your destination and how you can get there.
