The UK law entitles women and men to equal pay for equal work, though a 10% gap remains between median full-time pay for women and men. The Equality Act of 2010 protects against discrimination in employment terms based on various attributes and allows women to bring claims against employers for less favorable terms than men for equal or equivalent work. Non-compliance with equal pay legislation risks litigation, rising equal pay tribunals, financial liabilities, reputational damage, and impacts on productivity and talent retention. Aon Hewitt offers an equal pay audit tool to assess pay inequalities through data collection, analysis, and recommendations.
