Google releases pay methodology in attempt to prove no gender gap exists
Google has responded to Department of Labor claims that it underpays its female staff members. The statement explains the “gender-blind” way the company makes its salary calculations. It says this is based on the role, job level, job location and recent performance ratings.
Google says analysts calculating the salary have no access to gender information before it is fed into the company’s pay equity model.
