Full Integration with Workday/SAP

Our pre-built outbound flow from our Pay Equity Platform to Workday and SAP SuccessFactors typically includes two types of custom fields that can enrich Workday with additional data points:

  • Individual employee custom fields: These are data points linked to an individual worker level, such as unadjusted pay gap, predicted pay gap, adjusted pay gaps, etc. These data points can be brought into advanced compensation and used during merit cycles, ad hoc salary reviews, etc., or used in the individual worker profile.
  • Non-worker custom fields: These are data points linked to a position or job requisition and can be linked to the recruiting module to provide additional guidance or insight during the recruiting process for a specific job or role.

Our advisory services – Training & Change

Implementation of EU PTD will bring different change for different set of individuals. Taking people along in the journey will foster the right behaviours and culture, reduce risks and the need for ongoing remediation.

A change impact assessment for each group would inform the knowledge, skills and behaviour gap that would need to be bridged at an individual level and collectively across the groups. A robust communication plan will keep all groups informed and involved.

Navigating the demands and complexities of Pay Equity and Transparency can be daunting. A holistic approach will help address challenges comprehensively, and lead to achievement of goals.
