Lessons from reporting the gender pay gap

But the causes of the gender pay gap are deep-rooted and will take years to overcome. Some HR professionals may therefore feel they don’t have the power or influence to effect change. And some may be discouraged if they see the gaps getting wider or not closing quickly enough.

Our report, Not just a number: lessons from the first year of gender pay gap reporting, shows that most organisations are taking their responsibility for reporting seriously.
