The duty for larger employers and public authorities to publicly report on their equality work.
Definitions (2)
Redegjørelsesplikt is the statutory obligation for public employers and private enterprises with more than 50 employees (or 20-50 if requested by employees) to publicly report on their work to promote equality and prevent discrimination. This report must be included in the organization's annual report or another publicly accessible document. It requires detailing the actual state of gender equality, including quantified data on gender balance, salary mapping results, and involuntary part-time work, as well as outlining the measures taken to fulfill the aktivitetsplikt.
Redegjørelsesplikt, or the 'duty to report,' mandates that employers with specific obligations under the Act must annually disclose a statement on the actual status of gender equality within their undertaking. This report should detail the measures taken to comply with their 'aktivitetsplikt' (duty to act) and is typically included in the company's annual report. This reporting requirement enhances transparency and accountability, allowing for public scrutiny and oversight of an organization's progress in promoting equality and preventing discrimination.
