Lord Hay of Ballyore – 2015 Parliamentary Question to the Department for Education

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Lord Hay of Ballyore on 2015-12-15.

To ask Her Majesty’s Government what actions they are taking to promote equal pay for women in the workplace.

Baroness Williams of Trafford

Unequal pay for equal work is unlawful, and it has been for over 40 years. We have made changes that require employment tribunals to order any employer who loses an equal pay case to carry out an equal pay audit.
