(NUJ) The NUJ has expressed concern that the
Equality Bill - being debated in the UK Parliament today - will not do enough
to stop pay discrimination in the private sector.
When the union does workplace surveys women journalists almost always come
out as earning far less than their male colleagues.
But the government refuses to make employers publish pay audits and act on
them.
Jeremy Dear, NUJ General Secretary, said: "Unfortunately the Equality
Bill does not contain the key reforms needed to close the gender pay gap in the
private sector.
