FAQ
Will the analysis accurately reflect the realities of my organization?
Yes, we will work with you to understand the specifics of your pay and career processes which will inform how the analyses are set up and interpreted. We have extensive experience navigating the trade-off between keeping close to the reality of your business and complying with the myriads of specific regulatory and disclosure requirements.
Will the analysis increase my organization’s risk exposure?
No, knowing the extent of your exposure is the first step to managing risk effectively. Our experience shows that clients who invested in understanding the specifics of pay and career equity, then following through with well-tailored remediation, are most effective in long run. Periodically reassessing risk and realigning also insures lasting impact. Finally, it is customary for us to work with your legal counsel, which helps mitigate risk associated with confidentiality and legal exposure.
How will I communicate the results to other stakeholders?
All analyses will be completely transparent to you – we believe no analysis should be a “black box” to our clients. Upon conclusion of the analysis, you will be able to understand and explain the concepts and the analysis framework. In addition, we can run additional internal communication sessions to enhance the value and elevate the visibility of your project. In the past, we have also successfully used memos, guides and video materials to help further our clients’ communications agenda.
Who will conduct the analysis and own the process?
Our pay and career equity analyses are conducted at the highest level of accuracy over a set period of time which will depend on the scope. Throughout the project, we will provide you with a data request, assist in the data production, schedule and manage the milestone meetings, specify and build the statistical models, interpret and present the findings, draft intermediate and final reports, help communicate the findings internally, manage the remediation process and provide guidance with public disclosures. All while you retain the ability to provide your input.
What exactly is a statistical analysis and why should I trust it?
Regression analysis is the widely adopted standard approach to conduct an analysis of equity in pay, promotion, hiring, termination etc. It has been validated by academics, practitioners and legal institutions over the past century. More modern machine learning techniques are also used, though their use is more specialized, and they come with a set of drawbacks which makes them less suited for inference (gap analyses). We will rely on our expertise to choose the tools best suited to your specific situation.
How much data will I need to collect?
Generally, you will want to collect and produce all collected data that are relevant to your organization’s pay and career decisions. Because any statistical analysis works by way of measuring the remainder once all legitimate, business-related factors were taken into account, you should strive to achieve close to or full accounting of these factors.
How much will an analysis of my organization cost?
The cost will depend on the size of your workforce, the specific types and complexities of analyses and the reporting needs.
Will you be there to support me after the analysis is complete?
Yes, we take pride in serving our clients year-round, standing by to help you with any question or follow up. Our purpose is to make a difference, and in our opinion, this is best achieved when we remain engaged solving client’s issues when those occur.
