General Scheme of the Gender Pay Gap Information Bill: Discussion

9:00 am

Dr. Kara McGann:

The general scheme intimates that we could look at doing both. We feel the occupational categories piece would be a superior way of doing it as it would give us more information than the quartiles would. To do both, however, would be a futile exercise and would double the work without giving a more meaningful result. We see it as being one or the other and in our view the categories would give us more detail and robust information.
