How to report on the Gender Pay Gap

Organisations with over 50 employees are being asked to report on their Gender Pay Gap for the first time in 2025. These employers must publish their reports to their own websites or ensure the reports are accessible to the public in some other manner, by the end of November 2025.

The Department of Children, Disability and Equality has developed an online centralised reporting database. This year, the Gender Pay Gap Portal will launch on a voluntary basis with partner organisations Ibec and the 30% Club for member employers to report on a voluntary basis.

Employers will still be required to publish their reports on their own websites or ensure that they are accessible to the public in some other manner.

Legislation is being drafted to amend the Gender Pay Gap Information Act 2021 to provide the legislative basis for employers to be required to report their gender pay gap information via the online portal in 2026.
