Gender equality requirements
Equality Act - new requirements for employer information
New regulations will require employers with 250 or more employees to:
- Develop and publish equality action plans showing the steps they are taking in relation to gender equality, including how they are addressing their gender pay gap and supporting employees going through the menopause. The new regulations may include information about the content of the gender action plan, its form, any requirement for senior-level approval and when, how and how often it should be published.
- Publish information about the service providers they contract with for outsourced services. The new regulations will set out more details about what needs to be reported.
