The Department for International Trade (DIT) has a statutory requirement to publish information on the gender pay gap amongst its employees under the Equality Act 2010 (Specific Duties, Gender Pay Gap Information and Public Authorities) Regulations 2016, which come into force on 6 April 2017.

The information will be published no later than 4 April 2018 as required by the Regulations. DIT and UK Export Finance will publish their information separately on their respective gov.uk sites.
