What it measures
This score is a way to measure the proportion of women in the top earning positions of your company. This helps you **see how diverse are your highest impact roles **(often the highest paid ones), as well as a good way to identify any potential bias in your way to determine compensation for those top roles. This is especially important as it's been proven that:
negociation has a major (negative) impact on pay equality.
there is often more room for negociation for top roles in a company.
How ?
This score is super simple:
We compute the % of women amongst your top 10% highest paying roles (in Total cash, not only base salary)
For each % point of women in those 10%, 2% is added to your Top Earners Score
**So all in all, a 100% Top Earners Score is attainable only if your company has at least 50% of women amongst your the top 10% earners.
Examples
Company X has 27% of women amongst the top 10% earners of its company, therefore gets a 54% Top Earners Score
Company Y has 64% of women amongst the top 10% earners of its company, therefore gets a 100% Top Earners Score
