Business in the Community writes to Rishi Sunak asking him to introduce mandatory reporting as figures show the number of ethnic minority employees is rising
The letter asks the PM and the Leader of the Opposition, Sir Keir Starmer MP to work together to legislate for mandatory ethnicity pay gap reporting as soon as possible. Baroness McGregor-Smith CBE backed the call. She said: “It has been six years since I published my review into race in UK workplaces and since then, there has been no tangible action taken by the government to address pay disparities for diverse ethnic groups. It’s clear that mandatory reporting is the only way to address the ethnicity pay gap, it’s too late for voluntary guidance.”
Statistics published by the Office of National Statistics and analysed by Labour, found that Black Caribbean women were found to earn 18% less than men. Black African women, earned 26% less than their male counterparts.
