Introduction

Equal pay for work of equal value relates to the ground of sex only which is now part of Phase 2 of the discrimination legislation.

Original Policy Proposals (2019)

Applied to all protected grounds. Consultation question on whether a lead-in period was required.

Consultation Feedback (2019-2020)

This should only apply to the sex ground, as in the UK. Cross jurisdictional comparators should not be allowed.

Final – What the States have Agreed (2020)

Should apply only to the ground of sex.


Delayed commencement as sex is in phase 2 – estimated implementation five years after commencement of phase 1 (estimated to be 7 years from now).

No cross-jurisdictional comparators
