I fully support this, but it needs to be beyond base salary. they should state base and total comp with all of the strings clearly attached.

A previous employer would pat themselves on the back for keeping tight comp bands and paying everyone fairly, but they didn't disclose how new highers received very different signup bonuses and RSU packages. So yes, looking by ethnicity/gender/age/etc, everyone had the same base, but they were definitely not paid equally.
