I was some what surprised to hear on the Radio, the chairwoman Jenny Watson of the Equal Opportunities Commission suggesting that ministers should consider a moratorium for any firm who undertakes a pay review to identify inequalities in employees pay, for a period of 3 years. Hardly being that challenging I would suggest, with champions like that who needs enemies!
Under the current system tribunals hear such cases individually which means that each individual affected has to bring a separate claim. Not exactly efficient. Theresa May MP and shadow Minister has suggested that firms who lose wage tribunals could be instructed to undertake pay reviews for the rest of their staff, thereby unclogging the pay tribunal system which has seen sex discrimination cases double in the last 2 years.
