Requesting salary history to be made unlawful in the UK.
Requesting salary history as part of job selection process has to be made unlawful in the UK.This has been made a law in New York and other US states. So why not in the UK?
Being underpaid once shouldn't condemn you to a lifetime of inequality.
- A number of people are underpaid in the UK. Salary history should not be a factor in determining new pay as that undervalues the current market price for the position and skills of the employee.
- There is gender pay gap in the UK, and this will help bridge closing the gap. This is a well known issue in the UK which the government is tackling.
- Jobs will be offered based on skills, merit and demands of the job. Not gender, race or ethnicity.
