5.8 PTO Salary Transparency (GOMBA 2022) (B) by Learning Innovation Lab

5.8 PTO Salary Transparency (GOMBA 2022) (B) by Learning Innovation Lab https://padlet.com/edtech_lab/b18sivm8f9dub5op The article by Cullen and Perez-Truglia (2018) encourages companies to experiment with salary transparency and to start with an anonymous survey of employees on the topic. Let's see your views on the advantages and disadvantages of salary transparency. What would be the advantages and disadvantages of introducing salary transparency? en-us 2022-07-14 09:15:02 UTC 2025-04-24 09:17:00 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.com/edtech_lab/b18sivm8f9dub5op/wish/2252161224 transparency around compensation can be a motivation to work better, reduce turnover and ensure all workers receive equal pay for similar work

Also here a bit of a story from SEA. Salary's are pretty much always know. I can ask any of my friends: how much do you make. Even co workers between each other. my staff also all know from each other, therefore we always have to be a bit careful when hiring. no secrets at work :) ]]> 2022-08-01 10:41:15 UTC https://padlet.com/edtech_lab/b18sivm8f9dub5op/wish/2252723843 Same tasks/responsibility, different location https://padlet.com/edtech_lab/b18sivm8f9dub5op/wish/2265353035 What comes to mind is that e.g. if salaries would be transparent in our team it could cause quite some dissatisfaction as we have people with same roles in different locations (Denmark, Poland, India). Even if the difference in salary is partly explained by living cost in the country etc. I think it would lead to feeling of unfairness and decreased motivation for people in lower paid locations.

It reminds me of Soviet Union, to he honest - the system which wasn't effective for growth of shining stars and outliers. Sometimes you need to make money injections into someone's motivation for your specific reason (tied to a particular situation or deadline) and in case of transparency, there will be too much talks about what is right, and where is the justice (especially by his/her peers). Some folks are more elastic to compensation changes, others are not. You need to use right instrument for each situation and transparency limits the selection of available instruments.

Anyway, human being tend to celebrate envy whenever possible. Whether it happens between peers, “she/he cannot perform that great to earn that salary”, or in the neighborhood “the neighbor does buy a new car, he must earn too much money from his company” and so on…

Too much of transparency might harm relationships by its nature. Distrust, demotivation and dissatisfaction occur easier.

Otherwise, many more employees will feel unfairly treated and performance will drop. In addition, the classic games such as carrot hunting (if you do this and that, you'll get a raise) and the classic "a raise was actually impossible, but thanks to my efforts, it was at least enough for a little bit and now please be forever grateful" no longer work as good as they used to with transparency.

Even if injustices are perceived in the same positions, they may also be justified. However, this is not always apparent to the employee himself. People also often assess themselves "too well.

Such situations can also lead to envy and resentment, which worsens the work culture.

Supervisors must be able to justify why one employee earns more than another. This helps communicate expectations to employees and provides a sense of fairness. Also, employees who earn more than their colleagues may be more likely to want to live up to that extra income and work even harder. In sports like judo, there are belt colors that everyone can see. When you graduate higher, you have to perform better. Nobody with a black belt wants to be dominated by a white belt :-)

Key question, I suppose, is whether they can extract an even more valuable increase in performance.

Could drive people out if they feel underpaid and nothing can be done about it for reasons like budgeting.

I consider that the best option is to give a salary range, and consider that everyone will be included in that range: having a chance to increase your salary to the upper limit will help avoid putting a face to the number of the higher limit.
At the same time, an employee would like to change a payrange alltogether via promotion, will know what promotion means in practice.

It also helps them to know if they are paid as per the market standards. Also few people might be motivated to perform well if they know that they have a good potential for a certain salary increase & promotion

Also few might feel uncomfortable/inferior if they have a less salary for the same work done compared to their team members.

Moreover, when knowing the peer's salaries, and if the case that their peer's salaries is lower than his/her salary, it pushes him to put more efforts
