Seventy-five percent of employers now conduct regular pay equity audits, according to research from the Society for Human Resource Management. Most are keeping their eyes peeled for unwanted pay disparities related to gender, race/ethnicity, age, and other demographic characteristics. Despite their vigilance, the majority of employers still have one glaring blind spot: failing to examine the equity of their equity compensation.
