CMA response to consultation on equal pay and pay discrimination

The UK Competition and Markets Authority has responded to the Office for Equality and Opportunity's consultation on reforming the equal pay framework. It broadly supports requiring employers to publish pay information in job advertisements, but says the rules must be designed so that sharing some pay data does not harm competition. The CMA outlines two options: a binding minimum salary, or a pay range with a binding minimum and an indicative upper bound.
