Employees and candidates consistently value pay transparency, but before HR leaders alter their rewards strategies to meet these expectations, they must first consider their holistic impact on the organization. Peter Bamberger, Professor at Tel Aviv University’s Coller School of Management and author of “Exposing Pay,” joins the Talent Angle to detail what pay transparency means for employers, employees and society. He shares the history of the pay transparency movement and relevant academic research to explain how a culture of transparency impacts outcomes like pay equity and productivity. He argues that organizations should ultimately pursue a path towards more transparency. Peter A. Bamberger is the Domberger Professor of Management at Tel Aviv University’s Coller School of Management, and Research Director of Cornell’s Smithers Institute. His research examines rewards management, teamwork, and employee wellbeing. Author of several books including Human Resource Strategy and Exposing Pay, Bamberger has published over 100 referred journal articles.
