Government committee calls to force large companies to make ethnicity pay gap public

Government 'committed to taking action'

"I very much hope that I shall be in a position to say more shortly. But for the time being, I am afraid that all I can do is repeat what I said during the debate in September - that we continue to assess next steps and will set out our response in due course."The committee wrote in the new report:"The government has acknowledged that ethnicity pay gap reporting should be mandatory.

It adds:"Ethnicity pay gap reporting is not about producing a league table or punishing organisations who, due to geographic location, may not have access to the same talent pool.

Good idea, but let's not make it just about ethnicity: let's force employers to be open and honest about what they are paying ALL their staff. Public and private sector.

Tears!
