As just about every large company turns to Twitter to shout out its female workers during International Women\u2019s Day (IWD), the clever Gender Pay Gap Bot<\/a> is quote tweeting their posts with data about the pay disparity between men and women at each organization.<\/p>\n

The bot\u2019s data is limited only to organizations in the UK, as companies that employ 250 or more people are required to report data about their gender pay gap by law<\/a> \u2014 any companies that fail to publish this information could face court orders and fines<\/a>. All that data gets posted on the UK government\u2019s gender pay gap database<\/a>, where you\u2019re free to search for companies and find out how much lower women get paid when compared to men (or vice versa).<\/p>\n

The Gender Pay Gap Bot is exposing just how wide pay gaps are (if any at all). And yes, the bot\u2019s data is accurate. (I double-checked several of its tweets, and it all matches up with the information on the UK\u2019s website.) It looks like some companies aren\u2019t too keen on facing the reality of things, however, as the bot already led a number of organizations to delete their original tweets<\/a>.<\/p>\n

If you have some free time \u2014 and even if you aren\u2019t based in the UK \u2014 take a scroll through the Gender Pay Gap Bot\u2019s timeline<\/a> today. It\u2019s posting a new roast every couple of minutes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
