On the 5th June, this year, DWP published an official measure of the Gender Pensions Gap.
The Government has committed to annual reporting on this measure, which will help track efforts of government, industry, and employers to close the Gender Pensions Gap and ensure women can look forward to the retirements they’ve worked so hard for.
