GENERAL TRAFFIC LIMITED
Action plan 2026 to 2027
Contents
1. Introduction
What is an action plan?
Employers with 250 or more employees can produce and publish a voluntary action plan alongside their gender pay gap data. Their action plan shows the steps they are taking to address their gender pay gap and support employees experiencing menopause. Subject to legislation, these will be mandatory from spring 2027.
To create their action plan, the employer reviews a list of evidence-informed actions recommended by the government. They identify any that are already an established part of their working practice (‘embedded actions’), and choose at least 2 new actions to focus on (‘planned actions’).
You can see the full list of actions (opens in a new window) and guidance for employers on creating an action plan (opens in a new window).
GENERAL TRAFFIC LIMITED submitted the following supporting narrative with their action plan:
General Traffic Ltd will continue to report annually on our gender pay gap and take concrete steps to close it and create a workplace where everyone has equal opportunities to succeed.
