Are women still paid less than men in your workplace?
Despite a continued push for equality, the wage difference is still 9.4%, the same level as in 2017/18 when companies were first required to publish figures.
Ms Savova told the BBC's Today programme that the "main culprit" for the difference was that major corporations were setting "unambitious targets" for getting women into senior positions. Banking and finance remain among the worst offenders, with women earning, on average, 22.1% less than their male colleagues.The construction sector, meanwhile, narrowed the gap by 2.6 percentage points, but it remained highly unequal, with the average woman earning 78p for each £1 earned by a man.
Jemima Olchawski, chief executive at the Fawcett Society, said all employers needed to create an action plan which set out how they will improve gender equality in their workplace.Large businesses that have some of the widest gaps in pay between men and women include Easyjet, Lloyds Bank division and Savills.
