Google’s new tool shows employees projections on salary based on location

Google unveiled a platform on Tuesday which will let its workers calculate pay, benefits for remote workers and how their salary will be adjusted depending on the location.

The platform will also reveal how their pay and benefits will change if Google employees move to a cheaper or more expensive city. “With Google’s new hybrid workplace more employees are considering where they live and how they work,” a Google spokesperson told news agency AFP.

The new Work Location Tool will tell workers how their compensation, salary and benefits will be adjusted based on their location, it said citing that pay is based on costs of living in places and tuned to local job markets.
