Finally, gender pay gap transparency reaches Australia’s shores | Crikey

"The farce went something like this: every year WGEA would publish its “gender equality scorecard” and “employer of choice” citations, and the media would be awash in stories of employers “voluntarily” doing the right thing by — choose your own gender equality adventure — conducting gender pay audits, offering paid parental leave that didn’t differentiate between “primary” carers (usually women) and “secondary carers” (usually men). The hope was that more employers could be nudged into doing the right thing, but the reality was — and we all knew it — too many weren’t.

There remained, and still remains, a significant so-called “action gap”. Consider this: the 2021-22 data shows that while just over half of employers (54%) have conducted a pay gap analysis, 40% of those took no action as a result."
