In today's rapidly evolving workplace, ensuring fair and equitable pay practices is not just the right thing to do — it's a business imperative. At TE Connectivity, achieving pay equity across a global workforce of 85,000+ employees spanning more than 50 countries is both a reflection of the company's values and a strategic priority.
Maintaining that consistency, however, is complex. Differing national regulations, evolving legal requirements, and decentralized processes made global pay gap reporting a time-intensive endeavor.
"We needed a solution that streamlined the process and delivered insights we could act on globally."

Pay equity success rests on two pillars: running robust analyses to identify, explain, and close pay gaps, and calculating and disclosing country-specific metrics accurately.
With each country bringing unique deadlines and thresholds, the decentralized approach meant regional teams handled reporting independently. "It was time consuming and required significant resources to ensure unified compliance oversight," notes Frank Stoos, Director, Total Rewards. "We needed a solution that streamlined the process and delivered insights we could act on globally."
Growing transparency expectations from employees, investors, and leadership amplified the urgency. Delivering on those expectations demanded statistically rigorous analyses, the flexibility to test multiple groupings and controls, and methodologies adaptable to the full spectrum of global standards — especially between the U.S. and the EU.
Syndio Platform
To address these challenges, TE Connectivity partnered with Syndio, a recognized leader in fair pay and transparency solutions. Syndio delivered a comprehensive solution: proven technology, expert guidance, and tailored processes designed to meet the needs of a global enterprise.
“Syndio didn’t just hand us a platform; they worked alongside us every step of the way. They engaged directly with our Country HR, Payroll, and Total Rewards teams to build processes that fit our structure and culture,” says Alan Molloy, Sr. Director, EMEA Regional HR.
Syndio’s Essentials tool generates jurisdiction-specific reports for simple, accurate pay gap reporting — covering Ireland, Sweden, Portugal, California, Spain, Belgium, France, the UK, Norway, and more.
"The transformation has been remarkable. By simplifying global pay reporting and gaining visibility into our analysis and data, we've elevated our compliance program and sharpened our pay equity story. This sends a powerful message to both our employees and the market."
