There will be glasses of sweet sherry clinking in the BBC HR department today. The Equality and Human Rights Commission investigation into historic pay issues has come up as clean as can be expected.
It's taken 20 months to produce the 80-page report - much of it filled with the BBC's own documentation on the Career Path Framework, On Air Pay and Pay Transparency. The EHRC had been poking around for a year before they launched the formal investigation in March 2019. Their investigators took a look at some apparently random pay cases, and a selection of complaints, going into details in just 10.
They note some serious delays in coming to decisions, and that over 300 people are still paid more than the maximum of their broad band pay range and their job pay range. And that the Career Path Framework now has 730 job categories, compared with 600 when it was introduced in 2017.
