What are employers required to submit?

Any employer with 250 or more employees on their ‘snapshot date’ at the end of the financial year must submit both:

  • a gender pay gap report showing their breakdown of pay and bonuses by gender
  • an action plan outlining how they intend to address the gender pay gap and support employees experiencing menopause – these are voluntary for the 2026 to 2027 reporting year

2. Latest action plan (2026 to 2027)

EDINBURGH AIRPORT LIMITED submitted the following supporting narrative with their action plan:

We're committed to building a workplace where everyone belongs and can thrive, grow and be fairly rewarded for their contribution. Each year, we complete our Gender Pay Gap report as part of our commitment to transparency and meaningful progress. This is shared, alongside our action plan with all staff on our intranet. The root cause of our pay gap is our workforce composition, with more males in senior roles. These are typically in historically male dominated teams such as Engineering, so we are working hard to inspire the next generation to consider these roles. We challenge industry stereotypes and have expanded our engagement with young people. In 2026, we will engage more than 500 young people through work experience and our STEM centre, which looks for 50% of attendees to be female. Our commitment to DEI is further strengthened by our commitment to female representation. We are aiming for 35% representation at junior manager level, 40% at senior manager level and 40% in the workforce overall. This is supported by our internal development programmes, our women network and a female only mentoring scheme launching soon.

Action plan

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 plan shows the steps they are taking to address their gender pay gap and support employees experiencing menopause.

This will be mandatory from spring 2027, subject to legislation.

To create an action plan, employers review a list of evidence-informed actions recommended by the government. They can 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).

EDINBURGH AIRPORT LIMITED added the following ‘planned’ actions to their action plan for 2026 to 2027:

  • Encourage applications from a range of candidates
  • Set targets to improve gender representation
  • Conduct a menopause risk assessment for your workplace
  • Review policies and procedures to meet the needs of employees experiencing menopause

They indicated that the following ‘embedded’ actions are already an established part of their working practice:

  • Use fair and structured interview techniques
  • Advertise flexible working arrangements in job adverts
  • Encourage employee development through actionable steps
  • Offer mentoring, sponsorship and other development programmes
  • Increase transparency for pay, promotion and rewards
  • Train managers to support employees experiencing menopause
  • Offer occupational health advice to employees experiencing menopause
  • Set up menopause support groups and networks
