What is the Welsh Government doing to reduce the gender pay gap in Wales?
Addressing pay gaps is integral to our commitment to promoting fair work and our aspiration for a gender equal Wales. We are delivering a range of interventions across Welsh Government to deliver this.
We have introduced a National Milestone for the elimination of the gender, ethnicity and disability pay gap by 2050 and we are reviewing the Public Sector Equality Duty.
We are also promoting the real living wage and working with social partners to improve working conditions in sectors like social care and retail, where a significant number of workers are women on low pay.
More broadly, we continue to support the Gender Equality Forum; we are providing funding to Chwarae Teg, who provide expert on gender equality issues and we continue to deliver employability and skills interventions, along with childcare support to facilitate in-work progression.
