The Gender Pay Gap Conference 2017

Over the past month we have witnessed the tip of the Gender Pay Gap iceberg, with iconic institutions becoming embroiled in bitter disputes over disparity in pay.

The BBC, Church of England, Google, Financial Times and Cambridge University have all found themselves on the receiving end of staff outrage, public resentment and negative publicity as details of their Gender Pay Gaps have emerged.

This is just the beginning.

As more and more firms release details of their own Gender Pay Gap between now and next April we can expect media naming and shaming and the ensuing public backlash to intensify.

There will be many BBC moments ahead as transparency kicks in. Gender Pay is still a glass pyramid with fewer women at the top.
Ann Francke, CEO, CMI & Gender Pay Gap Conference Speaker, July 2017

The solution for employers is to get ahead of the game - embrace pay transparency in the workplace now, develop a strategy to close the gender pay gap and devise a communication strategy to control the narrative that surrounds your gender pay gap results.

The Gender Pay Gap National Conference has been devised to address these three fundamental strategies. Expert speakers from a range of sectors will be giving best practice advice and guidance on how your business can successfully naviagate Gender Pay Gap reporting unscathed.
