On International Women’s Day, Minister Norma Foley, Minister for Children, Disability, and Equality has announced that a new gender pay reporting portal for 6,000 public and private sector organisations will be launched in the autumn.
Figures from the most recent release of data from Growing Up in Ireland, which follows the progress of children born from 1998 onwards, has made clear that the gender pay gap continues to affect young women.
The portal announced today will help draw attention to the importance of gender pay gap reporting, and will be fully searchable by members of the public. The Department of Children estimates that a total of 6,000 organisations will be required to report their gender pay data to the new portal.
