pay fairness
Equitable compensation principle
Pay fairness is the principle that compensation should be equitable—that workers doing similar jobs should receive similar pay regardless of gender, race, or other demographic factors.
The term appears in discussions of wage gaps and discrimination: The company conducted a pay fairness audit.
Pay fairness can also refer more broadly to whether compensation adequately reflects the value of work performed.
