Compensation Terms That Need Explanation

September 6, 2023 Denise Liebetrau

There is an increased need to explain the following: 

$ Competitive pay (external market focus)

$ Equitable pay (internal equity focus)

$ Fair pay (based on an individual employee’s perception)

$ Job posting pay rates (employer practices and philosophy varies)

$ Living wage (social responsibility, ethics, DEI, and affordability)

$ Statistical pay gaps or pay disparities (root cause analysis and actions taken)

$ Workplace equity (equal pay for equal work AND equal access to opportunities)

 This is an opportunity to build trust in the workplace.

What compensation-related terms am I missing?
