Labour proposes bill to tackle gender pay gap

Labour wants companies to publish wage transparency surveys to tackle the gender pay gap.

Pay gaps between male and female workers will have to be published by medium to large size companies under fresh proposals from the Labour Party, writes Political Correspondent Juno McEnroe.

The party has highlighted new data which shows how Irish women earn on average 14% less than their male counterparts, as it launched efforts to try and close the gender pay gap here.
