abstract: 'Equal pay for work of equal value has come to be almost inextricably
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
associated with the application of job evaluation. Current trends
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
towards performance-related pay systems pose a potential threat to the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
pursuit of greater gender pay equality as discretion in pay
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
determination increases and there is no clear relationship between
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
earnings and job grade. This paper examines the basis for this view
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
drawing upon the now widespread literature and research into
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
performance-related pay. The argument is made that the problem for
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
gender equality lies both in the nature of the payment system and in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
context in which it is being applied, including the changes in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
nature of employment relationships that are accompanying these
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
developments. While some women may benefit, overall the moves towards a
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
widening income dispersion and the increased importance of management
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
discretion and appraisal are likely to disadvantage women. However, the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
individualization of pay is likely to lead to further fragmentation of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the interests of women, reducing the likelihood of collective
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
resistance. Opportunities to monitor pay trends will also decrease as
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the spread of performance-related pay reduces the transparency of the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
labour market.'
