California American Water Signs Equal Pay Pledge<\/b><\/p>\n

SACRAMENTO, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–
\nCalifornia American Water has affirmed its commitment to be an employer of choice by signing California\u2019s Equal Pay Pledge, a partnership between the Office of the First Partner, the California Commission on the Status of Women and Girls, and the California Labor and Workforce Development Agency to minimize the gender-related pay gap.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cI am proud to sign the Equal Pay Pledge, affirming the critical importance of pay equity,\u201d said Kevin Tilden, President of California American Water. \u201cCalifornia American Water regularly reviews pay equity, to ensure that our pay decisions are based on the talents and skills of our employees, and do not reflect factors such as gender, race, or ethnicity. We strive to reflect the communities we serve, and it is our goal to create more opportunities for women in the water industry.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nBy signing the pledge, California American Water has committed to conducting an annual company-wide gender pay analysis, reviewing its hiring and promotion procedures to reduce unconscious bias and structural barriers, and promoting best practices to help close the pay gap.<\/p>\n

\nSince the launch of the Equal Pay Pledge in April 2019, the effort has connected employers to educational efforts on pay disparity and encouraged companies to examine internal policies and practices. More than 100 major corporate commitments have been made, reaching hundreds of thousands of employees. Learn more by visiting www.gov.ca.gov\/equal-pay\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n
