The Equality Act 2010 (Equal Pay Audits) Regulations 2014
These Regulations are made under section 139A and 207(1) and (4) of the Equality Act 2010 (c.15) (“the Act”). They require an employment tribunal (“tribunal”) to order a respondent to carry out an equal pay audit (“audit”) after a finding that there has been an equal pay breach. An equal pay breach is defined in section 139A of the Act as a breach of an equality clause or a contravention of sections 39(2), 49(6) or 50(6) of the Act so far as they relate to sex discrimination in relation to pay.
