Incomparable Worth: Pay Equity Meets the Market

Challenging proponents of equal pay for comparable worth, Steven Rhoads (author of The Economist's View of the World) argues that implementation has been plagued by critical and insurmountable problems. Where success has been most frequently touted--in Minnesota, England, and Australia--job evaluation results are often arbitrary and political rather than objective. Rhoads cites cases where workers have been rated higher than their bosses, or where others previously paid equally for doing equal work have been assigned unequal pay. These and other such outcomes have created severe problems for public and private managers. But the most significant costs of comparable worth go far beyond the administrative. By substituting administered wages for market-determined ones, it produces gross inefficiency in labor markets. The book argues that jobs are truly incomparable using the methods on which comparable worth relies, and that the principles of comparable worth are not reconcilable with those of a market economy.
