The Boston Women\'s Workforce Council oversees the 100% Talent Compact, an employer pledge to take concrete, measurable steps toward closing the gender gaps in wages and representation in their companies. To help us measure our collective progress, businesses also provide employee demographic and salary data anonymously every two years. 

As of January 2019, more than 250 businesses have taken the pledge, Including five Fortune 500 companies. The companies listed below have signed the 100% Talent Compact. They\'re helping make Greater Boston the premier workplace for women in America by closing the gender gaps in wages and representation. They\'re also removing the visible and invisible barriers to women\'s advancement.

Equity is a competitive edge. Commit to closing the gender wage gap in your company today.
