Risks of not reporting or acting on your gender pay gap
Let’s explore the risks of not addressing your gender pay gap:
- In 2024, the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) named six organisations for missing the deadline to report their 2023-2024 gender pay gap data
- Companies must disclose the average pay difference between men and women, and failure to do so results in a warning from the EHRC, potentially leading to formal enforcement, including investigations and enforceable action plans.
- The EHRC can even seek court orders with unlimited fines for non-compliance.
- Reporting early ensures compliance and can also demonstrate your organisation’s commitment to transparency, helping to build trust and improve your brand reputation.
Learn why it's important to address gender pay gaps
- The Financial Conduct Authority, the conduct regulator for around 50,000 financial services firms and markets in the UK said, firms with a greater understanding of diversity and inclusion will be “better equipped” to provide products and services for a diverse consumer base
- Last year, the FCA set out proposals for firms with requirements to:
- Develop a diversity and inclusion strategy setting out how the firm will meet their objectives
- Collect, report and disclose data against certain characteristics
- Set targets to address under-representation
- However, little progress has been made, the gender pay gap in financial services (27.9%) is still nearly double the UK average (14.3%), making it one of the widest gaps by industry

- Equal pay claims in the public sector underscore the pressing need for the public sector to address pay gaps and ensure compliance
- Not just the gender pay gap, under the new Labour Government’s plan, it will be mandatory for employers with more than 250 employees to monitor and report on ethnicity and disability pay. This will mirror the current gender pay gap reporting rules. Employers will need to publish an action plan outlining how they will close any pay gap
- Public and not-for-profit sectors often have a higher degree of public scrutiny and are expected to lead by example. Many public and not-for-profit organisations rely on government funding or grants, which may come with new DEI compliance requirements. Failure to meet these standards could affect their funding
