PLEDGE TO CLOSE MONTANA'S WAGE GAP!

Together with our fellow Montanans and the Equal Pay for Equal Work Task Force, we pledge to close Montana's wage gap. As a Montana business and member of the community, we believe that businesses play a critical role in closing the pay gap and commit ourselves to removing visible and invisible barriers to women's advancement, and positioning Montana as an equal pay leader state.
1.I hereby pledge to close Montana’s wage gap:(Required.)
There are many ways to help close the wage gap, including:
  • Conduct employee surveys (to determine employee needs, concerns, causes of dissatisfaction, etc.)
  • Encourage diversity in hiring pools
  • Include women on hiring committees
  • Offer subsidized childcare
  • Provide flexible schedule opportunities
  • Provide diversity and gender equity training (gender bias, workplace culture, change management or other related training)
  • Provide paid family leave (for care of children and aging or ill parents)
  • Pursue mentorship or career development programs
  • Recruit women to executive level, board positions, or other nontraditional occupations for women
  • Allow for wage transparency to encourage open discussions between employee and employer about compensation and promotion
