Question

To ask the Minister for Women and Equalities, how many companies have been required to carry out equal pay audits after they have been found to be discriminating on the basis of gender since 1 October 2014.

Regulations requiring an employment tribunal to order an equal pay audit where an employer is found to be in breach of equal pay law came into force on 1^st October 2014. We are not so far aware of any cases where an audit has been ordered.
