Aesthetic Decor's decision to have absolute internal equity in its pay structure may lead to its traditional male jobs being paid less than what they are typically paid, which means that the organization's compensation for these jobs may not be externally competitive. This could make it difficult for the organization to attract and retain employees for these positions. However, it does not violate the Equal Pay Act or represent the concept of pay equality since the pay structure is based on the worth of the job to the organization, not on gender or any other irrelevant factors. Additionally, it is unclear whether the organization will have a hard time staffing gender-stereotyped jobs without additional information.
