The Equalities Bill is expected to force employers to disclose salary structures to make the 40% pay difference between men and women more transparent.
The Bill will encourage firms to discriminate in favour of female and ethnic minority job candidates, effectively discriminating against white men. Minister Harriet Harman told GMTV “Most women are just as committed to their jobs, yet if you are a woman working part time, your get 40% less per hour on average than a man working full time”.
What are you opinions?
