Pay Transparency: A pathway to equity or a strategic dilemma in the Indian Workplace?
Author(s): Minha Khan
Abstract: As organizations across the globe embrace principles of fairness and inclusion, pay transparency has emerged as a critical frontier in human resource management. Particularly in India, where gender wage gaps and socio-economic disparities persist across industries, the debate around disclosing compensation structures is gaining momentum. This paper explores the potential of pay transparency as a mechanism to reduce inequality while examining the practical complexities of its implementation across Economic sectors: Primary, Secondary, Tertiary, Quaternary and Quinary. Drawing from international practices and Indian labor laws, the study explores whether greater openness in compensation leads to organizational trust and equity or introduces new operational and cultural risks. Through literature review, industry-specific analysis, and case-based insights, this paper provides HR professionals, policymakers, and corporate leaders a balanced understanding of pay transparency in the evolving Indian context.
