"The problem of differences in wages between women and men is of high relevance for the Polish authority. The Ministry of Labour and Social Policy encourages all employers and social partners to pay attention to the importance of the equal pay principle. One of the tools that help organisations and companies to close the gender pay gap is wage monitoring. The equal pacE tool enables them to identify and measure a potential gender pay gap."
Anna Grędzińska, Counselor to the Minister, Ministry of Labour and Social Policy, Poland
"Weidmüller is now one of the leading suppliers in the field of Industrial Connectivity, and offers an extensive range within its products and solutions-portfolio for its customers in the fields of engineering, process industry, energy, transportation equipment and equipment manufacturing. With its 4,400 employees worldwide, Weidmüller leaves nothing to chance. The owning family sees its employees as the greatest innovative force - "Equal pay for equal work" is therefore the norm."
Andreas Uhlitz, Head of Personnel Policy Issues
"We are a desirable employer for qualified and dedicated women and men, therefore equal pay is essential. Fraport AG always ensures equal opportunities, verified by the results of the Logib-D analysis. Nevertheless, we remain active on the subject."
Gudrun Müller, Officer of Diversity, Head of Diversity and Social Affairs
"With help from Logib D, we ensure equal pay between men and women at Bayer Technology Services, also now scientifically established. As an entry point for young engineers into the Bayer Group, we can better recruit worldwide, especially for female experts and managers."
Astrid Geißler, Head of Human Resources,
Vice President Bayer Technology Services
"We believe Logib D to be much more than a mere analytical tool for compensation structures.
The process has helped us considerably to deduce key strategic areas of action for the future, company personnel policy and helped us to become significantly better innovators and desirable employers."
Stefan Seide, Head of Corporate Human Resources
"Personally, I was very pleasantly surprised by the very well-attended Label awards at The Federal Ministry of Family Affairs, Senior Citizens, Women and Youth and by the growing acceptance and awareness of many companies to review the salary structures in their companies, in order to come a step closer to total pay equality.
It would certainly be helpful for many companies, to fully learn how a step-by-step implementation of business pay equity in the company can be put into place in a concrete and pragmatic way, according to the experience of exchange groups in the companies. I wish Logib D continued success in attracting companies to establish the subject of a policy for fair wages."
Oliver Kothrade, General Manager, Human Resources DACH & General Affairs Hamburg
"Thanks to Logib-D, we can better assess the subject of wages here at VAUDE and have made a start on further developing ourselves as desirable employers."
Helmut Norwat, Head of Human Resources & Administration
"It makes us proud that we have also adopted the subject of "Pay equity" and, of course, that we don't see any large discrepancies. Although our results are very positive, we found areas within the analysis which have motivated us to take further action.
Only in this way, can we ensure that equal opportunities and a fairer attitude towards diversity become an integral part of our corporate culture."
Dagmar Brück, Head of Change and Diversity Management
The project "equal pacE" provides a web tool by which companies can voluntarily identify the causes of a potential gender pay gap. By using the equal pacE web tool, companies get valuable information not only on their pay structures, but also on other relevant issues of human resource management. The equal pacE web tool is available in five languages (English, Finnish, French, Polish and Dutch for its application in Flemish-Belgium and the Netherlands) and adjusted for the country-specific requirements.

The new equal pacE web tool is an interactive software application that can easily be used via this website. Users obtain an outcome report (as PDF file) that offers valuable gender-related information on the composition of their staff and their pay structure. Thus, the equal pacE web tool can detect the extent of a gender pay gap that may exist and its main drivers. Data security is guaranteed and use of the equal pacE web tool is free of charge.

Logib-D logo
The foundations of equal pacE stem from the German Logib-D project. Logib-D stands for “pay equality in companies – Germany” and is supported by the German Federal Ministry for Family Affairs, Senior Citizens, Women and Youth. Companies are offered an easy-to-use web tool for analysing their pay and personnel structures regarding gender pay inequalities. In addition, a Logib-D-based consulting package for 200 companies was provided by the ministry free of charge. Please see our testimonials above to learn about the benefits of using this web tool.
equal pacE offered train-the-trainer workshops for social partners, multipliers and public authorities in five European countries to accompany the implementation of the equal pacE web tool. The goal was to provide participants with strategies and tools to support their member institutions and the public in attracting and retaining top talent irrespective of gender, and thus contribute to a reduction of the gender pay gap. One focus was on the equal pacE web tool which had been introduced and its usage practiced. The workshops were free of charge.
We are pleased to announce that the train-the-trainer-workshops have successfully been carried out in the following countries:
