Gender pay gap action plans, what does meaningful action look like?
from Workplace Confidence Podcast · host Penny Haslam
Workplace Confidence Podcast - Gender pay gap action plans, what does meaningful action look like? In this episode, I chat with Gillie Fairbrother, Global Responsible Business Officer at Davies, about what a gender pay gap action plan actually looks like in practice — and why employers really do need to get on with it.Employers with 250 or more staff are being encouraged to explain what they are actually doing to close their gender pay gap and support employees experiencing menopause. We discuss what meaningful action looks like in practice — and how organisations can finally move beyond just publishing the numbers.For Gillie, the timing really matters. She told me it is about asking harder questions and getting much more specific about what will actually change things.As she put it in our chat, “People will no longer be able to get away with saying things like, ‘we will consider’ and ‘we aim to’. It’s now about: how are you going to do it, and how is that going to impact?”Listen to all episodes of the Workplace Confidence Podcast
