The majority of U.S. and U.K. corporate workers want employer mandates to show how much they are paying women compared to men—but if that meant giving up some key perks, then nevermind, according to the beqom report, “The Gender Pay Gap: What Your Employees Really Think.”
beqom surveyed 1,600 employed adults in the U.S. and U.K. who work at companies of 250+ employees (in the U.K., companies with more than 250 employees are required to comply with gender pay gap reporting). A majority of U.K. respondents (74 percent) support the national employer mandate, and 72 percent of U.S. respondents say there should be a similar law in their country.
