Honesty or keep it private? 💷🤔 ✒️ KasiaLDelgado explores why making salaries public can be risky ⤵️
“I would like people to know my wage so I, and others, can make sure everyone is getting paid what they should be,” says Oothman. “For example, recently an engineer in my group realised that others who had done the same courses as him were being paid more, so he complained to management about it and recently received his pay rise. Without talking to others about their pay he would have never come to this realisation.
Ingrid, a 42-year-old branding strategist based in Paris, similarly says there is no overall pay transparency at her company, but she has decided to individually tell colleagues who ask her what she earns. “I’m in a WhatsApp group with a few of my colleagues and we all share our salary, pay rise and bonus each year… I wouldn’t have it any other way.”
The issue of pay can be a complex, sensitive one – intrinsically tied to a sense of personal worth and value. Recruitment company Reed asked 2,000 adults in 2021; “How would you react to finding out a colleague in a similar role was being paid more?”. In response, 15 per cent of people said they would look for a new role, and five per cent said they would quit their job. A total of 40 per cent of people said that discovering this information would leave them feeling undervalued by an employer.
Some companies in the UK are already doing things differently. Liam Baldock, 26, is the social media lead at new travel company start-up. He knows how much his colleagues earn because salaries are advertised with the job adverts, and everyone is in a specific band and at a particular level, which everyone can find out online whether they work there or not.
