【 摘 要 】

Hachette UK voluntarily published its first 'Ethnicity Pay Gap' report in April 2019. This article puts the pay gap into the context of Hachette UK’s wider diversity and inclusion agenda and is a key action towards its stated aim to be the publisher of choice for all people regardless of background. It examines the ethnicity pay gap data, the response to the disclosure by Hachette UK employees and the formation of an action plan to address the low representation of black, Asian, and minority ethnic (BAME) employees at Hachette UK. It then addresses the challenges of approaching topics of race and ethnicity in the workplace and imperatives for doing so, as well noting the successes. Finally, the article, looks to the future and how such reporting will inform meaningful diversity and inclusion interventions and cultural change across the business.
