Is my work of equal value to my colleague's?
Paste your job description and a colleague's. We weigh both on the four factors of the pay transparency law and show where your work overlaps and where it differs.
Why this matters
Equal pay applies not only to the same work but also to work of equal value. Two roles with different titles can be of equal value, and two roles in the same pay grade need not be.
Under the Dutch pay transparency law, expected in 2027, you may ask what colleagues doing the same work or work of equal value earn on average, broken down by gender. This comparison helps you see which colleagues that question is about.
The four factors
Skills
Level of knowledge, Experience, Complexity of problems, Social and communication skills, Technical and motor skills
Effort
Mental effort, Emotional effort, Physical effort
Responsibility
For results and decisions, For people, For resources or information, For external relationships
Working conditions
Physical conditions, Psychosocial conditions, Irregular hours and availability
This comparison is an indication based on the text you paste, not a legal opinion. Which roles form a category together is decided by your employer.
