Pay Data Reporting
The mandatory submission of aggregate compensation information by employers to a government agency, disaggregated by demographic characteristics.
Definition
Pay Data Reporting refers to the legal requirement for specified employers to periodically collect and submit detailed information about employee compensation, typically broken down by job category, race, ethnicity, and sex, to a designated government body. The purpose is to enable the identification and analysis of systemic pay disparities and to promote pay equity. In New York City, this involves annual reports modeled after EEOC EEO-1 Component 2 reports.
