In 1975, groundbreaking legislation was implemented to prevent sex discrimination against women in the workplace. Thirty-two years on, and despite radical change, has the gender equation been balanced?

The workplace is still very much a man?s world. Over the last three decades women?s lives have changed beyond recognition but there is an abundance of case reports that show women still face scandalous inequalities in the workplace.

This white paper looks at the issues surrounding gender equality, such as:

  • work-life balance;
  • the glass cliff;
  • equal pay;
  • gender reassignment;
  • maternity leave; and
  • the Equality Bill.
