According to this recent study, most people significantly underestimate what people are earning in similar jobs elsewhere. The researchers argue this holds people back from seeking better paid jobs or higher pay. They also suggest that if workers were more aware of salary disparities, at least 10% of low-paying jobs would simply not be viable at current pay rates.
So one D.C. TikTok content creator named Hannah Williams has set out on a mission to get people to talk openly about their salaries. With two simple questions, “What do you do?” and “How much do you make?”, the Salary Transparent Street project is promoting equal pay through transparent conversations, something that in many workplaces is still seen as a taboo topic.
Williams’s videos amassed millions of views and counting, and it’s obvious how much they have resonated with people. The creator now plans to travel nationwide and ask people in every capital city how much money they make. So follow her on social media to see how it goes!
