Answer #1

2010 equal Pay Act was aimed towards elimination of discrimination in pay at workplaces and ewual treatment in access to employment and public private services irrespective of gender or age or race.

Empirical studies reflected that in full earnings distribution the women are over represented at lower earning extreme and men are over represented at higher earnings extreme.

Hence Act was more focussed on eliminating pay gaps and keeping men and women on level playing field and employers to report salary quartiles for both men and women.
