Workforce pay-gap decomposition worksheet calculator

Calculate overall pay/hour for X and Y and unadjusted relative gap,/Y with your own figures.

Your numbers

Use the units shown. Results update as you change valid inputs.

Choose the currency for these amounts. Changing it keeps your numbers and does not convert exchange rates.

Use overall pay/hour for X and Y and unadjusted relative gap,/Y to compare changes to your inputs. The method and limits below explain the scope.

Calculation method

Calculation method

Overall pay/hour for X and Y (USD)

For each supplied group divide total pay by total matched hours.

Unadjusted relative gap, (Y−X)/Y (%)

Compare the overall rates using Y as the reference denominator.

Common pooled-hours role weights (%)

For each role use its X+Y hours divided by all pooled hours.

Common-role-mix pay/hour for X and Y (USD)

Apply identical pooled role weights to each group’s within-role pay/hour.

Common-mix relative gap, (Y−X)/Y (%)

Compare the standardized rates with Y as reference.

Within-role relative gap, (Y−X)/Y (%)

Within each role compare pay/hour with Y as reference; no covariate regression is implied.

Assumptions & limits

Assumptions & limits

  • A descriptive two-group common-role-mix worksheet using supplied aggregates. X/Y labels are not inferred demographics. Differences do not establish causes, equal-pay compliance or a defensible employment decision; no individual ranking is produced.
