(1) An employer shall adopt and maintain written policies or criteria establishing the objective and gender-neutral criteria used to determine workers’ pay, pay levels and pay progression in accordance with principles established in regulation 3. Such written policies or criteria shall be accessible to workers at all times.

(2) Without prejudice to an employer’s obligation to comply with the terms established in the Act and these regulations, employers employing fewer than fifty (50) workers shall be exempt from the requirements established in sub-regulation (1) insofar as such requirements relate to pay progression. Notwithstanding such exemption, such employers employing twenty (25) or more workers shall remain obliged to internally document at employer level, the criteria used to determine workers’ pay, pay levels and pay progression. For the avoidance of any doubt, employers employing fewer than twenty-five (25) workers shall, in all cases, remain bound by the principles relating to equal pay for equal work or work of equal value as established under these regulations.
