Introduction:
Welcome to the Beyond the Pay Gap Podcast. In this episode, we are pleased to have Aurélien Joly, the Communication Manager for the Equal Salary Foundation. Aurélien discusses the foundation’s work in certifying companies for equal pay and opportunities, and shares insights into the certification process and its benefits.
The certification involves a detailed salary analysis, considering factors such as education, age, gender, and job functions, to ensure fair pay practices. Companies undergo a rigorous audit process and must meet specific criteria to achieve certification.
Certified companies often see increased employee satisfaction, more promotions for women, and improved employer branding. Certification also helps in risk mitigation and legal compliance.
The foundation continues to support certified companies through regular audits. Aurélien emphasizes the strategic importance of equal pay certification for organisational resilience, talent retention, and legal preparedness, particularly in light of evolving European regulations.
Aurélien advises the certification can help align with global standards and attract diverse talent.

Quote Highlight:
"It’s about being proactive so that you're not caught on the backfoot and caught out because you haven't been doing this work in advance."
