Measure your pay gap. Certify that you’ve closed it.
Fair pay is no longer a statement. It’s something you have to prove.
Intent doesn’t pass an audit. Employees, regulators, and investors now expect measurable evidence of fair pay. And the gap between commitment and proof is where the risk lives.
Employees expect it
68% of employees would change jobs for greater pay transparency at the same salary — rising to 81% among Gen Z, and felt most acutely by women.
Regulators enforce it
Equal pay is a near-universal obligation: ILO Convention No. 100 is ratified by 174 countries, with new reporting laws advancing across the EU and beyond.
Boards & investors watch it
Yet only 32% of organizations have publicly shared a commitment on pay equity. Credible, objective evidence is what separates leaders from exposure.
Close the gap you find.
Prove the result you reach.
One offline application that does both jobs. Unlike cloud-based tools, your data never leaves your environment. Nothing shared with or stored by EDGE.
Find the gap that can’t be explained
A regression-based analysis isolates the portion of the gender pay gap that cannot be explained by objective factors — for every category of workers — and points you to the root causes and the actions that actually close it.

a credential
The same analysis produces audit-ready, one-click output — the verified statistics required for the EDGE Pay Equity and Transparency Certification and for your reporting under the EU Pay Transparency Directive and beyond.

From pay analysis to recognized certification
The EDGE Pay Equity and Transparency Certification is the first and only recognized global standard for pay equity and transparency. Earning it takes two things: a rigorous pay equity analysis, and a review of your pay policies. The EDGE Empower® Pay Tool delivers the analysis. Here’s the path to certified:
1 · Run your analysis
Use the Pay Tool to run an EDGE-compliant, fully offline pay equity analysis — the statistics your certification is built on.
2 · Meet the EDGE benchmark
Your results are measured against the EDGE Standards. Meet the benchmark and you’re eligible to certify.
3 · Get certified
An accredited auditor — SGS, Intertek or FLOCERT — independently verifies your analysis. Pass, and you earn the certification.
See differences with clarity. Make change with purpose. Close the pay gap with EDGE Empower® Pay Tool.
