The reporting deadline for the gender pay gap is fast approaching: 30th March 2022 for most public authority employers and the 4th April 2022 for private, voluntary and all other public authority employers. In addition, UK employers are being urged to think about ethnicity pay gap reporting in line with gender pay gap reporting regulations.

But after two years of disruption, how can organisations put diversity back on the front foot? What actions can companies do now to:

a) understand how the pandemic has impacted their pay gap, and;

b) to start proactively building solutions to reduce the pay gap and that are resilient in more volatile times?

To build a strong long-term strategy, key questions to ask will be the who, what, when, where, how and why! To help with these questions, Henley Reward Consulting are putting a series of articles and guides together to support companies on this journey.
