answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/05/2020 answer text <p>The Government does not routinely monitor redundancy statistics by protected characteristics. However, when employers select employees for redundancy, they must comply with the requirements of the Equality Act 2010 and ensure that they do not unlawfully discriminate. There are also additional considerations that employers must take into account when redundancies affect women who are pregnant or on maternity leave.</p><p> </p><p>The Government continues to gather data, including through interactions with stakeholders, to understand the impacts of COVID-19 on all citizens, including groups with protected characteristics.</p> answering member constituency Sutton and Cheam answering member printed Paul Scully question first answered 11/05/2020 16:53:04 answering member 4414 label Biography information for Paul Scully

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/02/2020 answer text <p>The Government is committed to cracking down on employers who fail to pay the NMW. HMRC follows up on every worker complaint it receives, even those which are anonymous. The Government publishes a regional breakdown of National Minimum Wage enforcement activity, including arrears and penalties, as part of the annual Enforcement and Compliance Report. The most recent report can be found <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/national-living-wage-and-national-minimum-wage-government-evidence-on-compliance-and-enforcement-2019?utm_source=c1be9ead-a906-4fe7-ba50-f499bf80967a&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_campaign=govuk-notifications&amp;utm_content=immediate" target="_blank">here</a>.</p><p> </p><p>Caution is required when analysing Minimum Wage enforcement by geography. Enforcement data is reported based on employers’ details, not workers’. This means HMRC may identify arrears for workers who live outside of the immediate area where their employer is based. Similarly, for large employers, arrears and penalties may be attributed to a specific head office location.</p> answering member constituency Sutton and Cheam answering member printed Paul Scully question first answered 27/02/2020 09:19:44 answering member 4414 label Biography information for Paul Scully
