WPP has cut its overall gender pay gap, new figures show
80% of WPP companies in the UK have cut their gender pay gaps according to 2019 and 2020 figures released by the group.
The announcement means WPP has made modest progress on the issue, which was found to be worsening in 2019 when the last set of figures were published.
What’
s new?
Every UK company with more than 250 employees is required by law to report its gender pay gap; firms that do not publish their figures are subject to fines.
This year, WPP has published both its 2020 and 2019 figures in a single tranche after the UK government paused statutory gender pay gap reporting last year to ease pressure on businesses affected by the pandemic.
