HM Treasury: Government launches review of fair pay in the public sector led by Will Hutton
The Government today confirms the launch of an independent review of fair pay in the public sector headed by leading economist Will Hutton.
The review will investigate pay scales across the public sector, and make recommendations on how to ensure that no public sector manger can earn more than twenty times the lowest paid person in the organisation. The review will publish an interim report in Autumn 2010, and a final report in Spring of 2011.
Mr Hutton has a wealth of experience of pay and workforce fairness issues from eight years of leading and now working for The Work Foundation, as well as great expertise in the fields of organisation and management theory. He brings an outside perspective to this review, independent of Government.
More information on the Review, including Terms of Reference, can be found here:
The Chancellor Said: "Fairness should be at the heart of all public sector pay policy - there is no reason why public sector managers should routinely be paid more than twenty times the wage of the people working in their organisation. Will Hutton has a wealth of experience in this area and I am delighted he has agreed to lead this important review. His work will play a crucial role in delivering fairness in public sector pay."
Will Hutton said: "Ensuring fairness in public sector pay in current economic circumstances is a national priority, and I am delighted to be invited to lead this review. My approach will be to make recommendations rooted in tried and tested
principles of fairness supported by as much evidence as can be gathered. There are multiple causes of growing pay disparity and the terms of reference permit the review to fully investigate them ? and, of course, the consequences. Broader social norms have been changing over pay. One aim of this review apart from its recommendations on public sector pay, as the Prime Minister notes, will be to contribute to shaping those wider norms in future."
