IDN Pay Gap Conference 2026: Full Agenda Now Live

Inclusion and Diversity in Nuclear (IDN) is pleased to share the full agenda for the 2026 Pay Gap Conference, taking place on Thursday 12 February 2026 in Manchester, UK, with the option to join online.

This year’s conference brings together leaders, data specialists and policy experts to explore the realities behind pay gaps and, crucially, how organisations can drive meaningful, measurable progress.

Across three focused sessions, attendees will gain insights into:

  • What different pay gaps look like in real‑world contexts
  • Why pay gap transparency and accountability matter to business performance
  • How organisations can improve data integrity, foster disclosure, and take practical steps to close gaps

The agenda features discussions on gender, disability, and ethnicity pay gaps, as well as a timely update on the EU Pay Transparency Directive and its implications for UK employers. Interactive panels and case studies will provide attendees with evidence‑based approaches they can apply in their own organisations.

Whether you’re joining in person or online, the conference offers a valuable opportunity to connect with peers, deepen your understanding, and contribute to building a fairer future for the workforce.
