Microsoft has made progress on its effort to close the gender pay gap — but the software giant still hasn't completely eliminated the divide.

"Today, for every $1 earned by men, our female employees in the U.S. earn 99.8 cents at the same job title and level," Microsoft's Executive Vice President of human resources Kathleen Hogan wrote in a Thursday blog post in honor of Equal Pay Day, a public awareness event intended to illustrate the gap between men's and women's wages.

The announcement comes a year and a half after Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella, in response to his controversial remarks at the Grace Hopper conference about women and pay raises, outlined a new diversity plan for the company, which included a focus on ensuring equal pay for equal work. At the time, female Microsoft employees in the U.S. earned 99.7 cents for every $1 earned by men.

Meanwhile, racial and ethnic minorities are faring better at Microsoft, earning $1.004 for every $1 earned by their Caucasian counterparts, Hogan revealed. Breaking it down, African-American employees earn $1.003, Hispanic/Latino(a) employees make 99.9 cents, and Asian employees make $1.006 for every $1 earned by Caucasian employees at the same job title and level.

"These numbers reflect our commitment to equal pay for equal work, and I'm encouraged by these results," Hogan wrote. "We will continue our commitment to equal pay by monitoring this data and publicly disclosing it."

Meanwhile, Microsoft wasn't the only tech giant to acknowledge Equal Pay Day. Facebook on Thursday one-upped Redmond, revealing that it its employees don't have to worry about a gender pay gap.

"We regularly review our compensation practices to ensure pay equity, and have done so for many years," Facebook's Head of HR Lori Goler wrote in a post on the social network. "We complete thorough statistical analyses to compare the compensation of men and women performing similar work. I'm proud to share that at Facebook, men and women earn the same."
