Equal Pay Reporting - Huge Fines Looming?

The deadlines for reporting on equal pay are 30 March 2018 for public sector organisations and 04 April 2018 for businesses and charities. 

The Equality and Human Rights Commission will commence enforcement action on 09 April 2018 giving a further 28 days to comply.

One recent estimates suggested 33% of FTSE 100 companies had still to report and another that for all eligible employers the figure was closer to 12%

Given the large number of organisations who have still to report and the time available to gather the information and report penalties are likely to be widespread.
 
It is also probable that many of those organisations who have ignored equal pay reporting will also have paid too little attention to The GDPR and will be at risk of fines for non compliance in that area too

Face Book The Face Book case arose from an unfair dismissal claim. The Employment Tribunal held that a pub manager was fairly dismissed for gross misconduct after she made inappropriate comments on Face book about two customers who had verbally abused and threatened her.   The Face Book chat took place while the employee was at work and did not reflect her upset or anger at the customers, but appeared to be a joke between friends.  However, a wider audience was able to look at her Face Book page, in...
