More and more companies focus on pay equity for a number of motives, such as ESG, employer branding, talent attraction and increased legal scrutiny.

- Key components of a pay equity audit, including the importance of conducting an audit under legal privilege.
- Latest pay equity trends.
- A global overview of evolving pay equity laws and legislation, with a focus on the US, UK and Canada.
