Can any CEOs that intentionally pay women less where everything is equal chime in and explain why?
---
In my experiences, I believe women are brought in under equal pay but in small teams and companies they are relied on to handle more responsibilities; perhaps even sometimes being considered "senior" when they aren't promoted to that level.
I can't think of a single person who would be dumb enough to consider someone's genitalia when determining pay rate.
- peter-fogg 13y agoMany forms of discrimination are much more subtle than "this candidate is a woman, so I'll offer her $10,000 less than a man". That's why the authors chose Denmark as an area of study; since the country is (apparently) a fairly egalitarian place, any explicit biases should have a small effect, and anything left over is unconscious discrimination.
