This paper examines the equal pay legislation, aiming to assess whether it is enough to tackle the gender pay gap. The paper outlines aspects of the legislation, and discusses the equity bill, the EU treaty, and EU law, all in reference to male and female equality in the workplace. The paper then discusses the current strategies used to tackle these issues, and the paper concludes by explaining why the equal pay legislation is not effective enough to tackle the gender pay gap alone.
