Fair pay isn't just the right thing to do: it is a competitive advantage. Employers who close gender and racial wage gaps build workplaces where top talent wants to work and stay. The Boston Women's Workforce Council (BWWC) has spent over a decade using data to help Greater Boston employers do exactly that. Now we're bringing those insights to Worcester.

What's on the agenda:

• Boston Numbers Show Progress: Fresh findings from the BWWC's 2025 data cycle, drawn from payroll and demographic data across 100+ Greater Boston employers as well as implications from the inaugural report of the Frances Perkins Workplace Equity Act
• A Smart Way to Compete for Talent: See how leading companies use transparent pay data to build equitable workplaces that attract and keep the best people in a tight market
• What This Means for Worcester: A practical conversation about how local employers can put these tools to work and keep the best talent here in Worcester.
