Benefits assessments for EU Pay Transparency

Ensuring your benefit programs stand up to scrutiny, identifying potential gender gaps, and building a robust roadmap for total rewards to thrive in a new age of pay transparency.

Benefits assessment toolkit

While many organizations focus primarily on cash compensation, the EU Pay Transparency Directive (EU PTD) requires a comprehensive view of "pay" including the design and eligibility of your benefit programs.

Our benefits assessment toolkit provides the structured framework and specialized tools you need to assess your current state and present the value your benefits strategy.

Strategic guiding principles

We help you understand the specific implications of the Directive on benefits, from valuation methodologies and data gathering to the critical distinction between what to include or exclude in your reporting.

Plan design and eligibility audit

Identifying "hidden" gaps is essential. We utilize a comprehensive diagnostic framework to assess whether eligibility requirements (such as waiting periods, vesting) or design features (such as option to opt-out, or salary caps) are expected to disproportionately impact specific employee groups. While most gaps arising from plan design or eligibility features are expected to be supported by objective reasons, we will also help identify any features that may be more difficult to justify.

Rigorous data collection and valuation frameworks

Data collection for benefits is often fragmented. Our standardized methodology creates a country-agnostic data collection and valuation framework, ensuring your qualitative rationale for exclusions and valuation methodologies are robust and audit-ready.

"Objective Reasons" explained

Where gaps exist, they must be explainable. We provide access to a specialized library of gender-neutral, objective justifications tailored to specific benefit types, such as retirement and health insurance, to demonstrate that variations are not due to gender.
