DEFINING FAIR PAY AT SAP<br />

CHETNA SINGH: HEAD OF GLOBAL<br />

TOTAL REWARDS<br />

SAP<br />

George Sifakis: Could you kindly describe to the<br />

millions of people watching this interview what fair pay<br />

is and why it has been implemented at SAP?<br />

Chetna Singh: Absolutely! Thank you, George, for bringing such an important topic to our<br />

discussion. So let me start with fair pay, how you visualize it, and how you make it work. I will<br />

give you a very simple way of visualizing it. Imagine two stacks. The first stack is the foundational<br />

stack, which is about setting up objective and transparent compensation systems regardless of age,<br />

gender, ethnicity, culture, sexual orientation, identity, or work-life situation. That's the first layer.<br />

The second layer is all about aligning reward outcomes to individual impact and contribution.<br />

When you combine this together, that's fair pay. Fair pay is not about paying everybody the same,<br />

and many times I think that's how people get a little confused, but if you imagine these two layers,<br />

that's how we make it work in SAP. That's fair pay.<br />

Why has it been implemented in SAP? It's super simple. It creates a culture of inclusion and equity,<br />

it's how your customers or investors make their decisions, and it's also all about making us an<br />

employer of choice for our employees and external talent. It's all about what an organization stands<br />

for, and to me, if the foundation is weak, you can't build a stronger house. This is why it's so<br />

crucial for us at SAP.<br />
