- Question
-
To ask the Minister for Women and Equalities, what the Government's planned timetable is for ending the gender pay gap.
- Answer
-
This Government is committed to transforming the lives of working women, and that includes going further and faster to close the gender pay gap.
The landmark Employment Rights Bill includes measures to change our workplaces to better support women, including improving access to flexible working; strengthening protections for pregnant workers and those returning from maternity leave; and giving employees basic rights from their first day in a new job.
The Bill also includes a requirement for large employers to publish action plans outlining the steps they are taking to tackle the gender pay gap in their own organisations.
