SEATTLE, Sept. 15, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Fair Pay Workplace (FPW), the trusted symbol of pay equity around the world, today announced it has certified six companies, including American Airlines Group Inc. (NASDAQ: AAL) and Anthem, Inc. (NYSE: ANTM) as Fair Pay Workplaces. Each company has undergone a rigorous evaluation of their data and practices via a transparent set of rules and standards, and has committed to following a tailored action plan building upon their fair pay practices.
"Pay equity is measurable and calculable -- and simply checking a box and claiming its achievement is no longer acceptable to employees, shareholders and other stakeholders," said Heidi Durham, executive director of Fair Pay Workplace. "These companies that have been awarded certification are leading the way in ensuring equal pay for equal work throughout their organizations. They have demonstrated their commitment to working toward pay equity through ongoing analyses and are working in partnership with FPW to drive the achievement of their tailored action plans. Their employees and stakeholders should be proud."
The inaugural class of companies to achieve Fair Pay Workplace certification are:
Once-a-year, backroom analyses can be costly and time consuming, and most critically, fail to address the underlying causes of inequity. Corporate leaders are now looking beyond antiquated methodologies toward data-driven approaches that empower them to actively monitor discrepancies, communicate insightfully with employees and work toward addressing the underlying causes of inequity within their organization.
The FPW's Pay Equity Review is applicable to domestic and multinational entities alike, as it allows global employers to group and compare compensation for employees based on their country of residence. For the analysis, measurement and remediation planning of all companies striving for certification, FPW utilizes Syndio's PayEQ software to perform its analysis as it gives FPW a true and ongoing look at a company's pay data vs. a moment-in-time view. Syndio is an Equity Tech company and is the technology partner of Fair Pay Workplace.

"At American, our purpose is to care for people on life's journey. Our work as an airline makes the world a smaller, more inclusive place, and our strength lies in having a team that represents the diverse communities and customers we serve. One of the best ways to care for our team is to be a leader in diversity, equity and inclusion, and pay equity is a cornerstone of this work. We are committed to maintaining pay equity through our policies and regular reviews of compensation. These reviews are specifically for our management and support staff team, as our frontline team members' pay is organically aligned through collective-bargaining agreements. We are tremendously proud to achieve Fair Pay Workplace certification, but to be clear, this is not the end of our pay-equity journey." – Cole Brown, Chief People Officer of American Airlines
"Anthem is committed to diversity and inclusion and to building a more equitable world – and it is incumbent upon us to lead, starting with fair pay for our own associates. As the trusted symbol of pay equity around the world, the mission of Fair Pay Workplace resonates deeply with Anthem.
