English: I regularly reflect back on my time before coming to the Senedd, and the groups of people that I represented, including lots of women in equal pay claims, and understanding that, even in organised workplaces there are inequalities in pay outcomes, and some of those are structural and are about discrimination within the pay system. And then you have the broader challenge, of course, that part-time workers still receive less pay than full-time workers, and part-time workers are disproportionately women. So, I recognise there's a whole range of structures. The Government has a role in doing something about it. Some of that is in the leadership space, in being clear about the fact that this is issue and then setting out some of the things we'll do, both in the intervention we want to make in the labour market and getting more people to be economically active, but then also in equipping those people to gain access to better paid work. That's both the skills training, but it's also some of the points that Julie Morgan has been outlining about the childcare offer and the expansion of that as well, to give practical access to people to paid work opportunities and for childcare to be affordable. So, it's a wide range of different measures that are required to genuinely transform and to tackle pay gaps, consistent action to transform organisational structures, policy and outcome. It also requires the private sector to play their part too. We don't have all of the legal responsibilities in this area, but, as I say, I think the leadership role we have really does matter, and that's why we profile people who do the right thing when it comes to the reward of their workforce and recognise the fact that everyone should be paid fairly. It's also, therefore, about why fair work isn't just something that goes into trade union representation and organisations. It's all of those things and the sorts of companies that we want to work with, and it's part of the requirement we expect of people who want support from the public purse here in Wales.
Welsh: Rwy'n aml yn cofio am fy amser cyn imi ddod i'r Senedd, a'r grwpiau o bobl roeddwn yn eu cynrychioli, gan gynnwys llawer o fenywod mewn hawliadau cyflog cyfartal, a deall bod yna anghydraddoldebau o ran canlyniadau cyflog hyd yn oed mewn gweithleoedd cyfundrefnol, ac mae rhai o'r rheini'n strwythurol ac yn ymwneud â gwahaniaethu o fewn y system gyflogau. Ac yna mae gennych her ehangach, wrth gwrs, fod gweithwyr rhan-amser yn dal i gael llai o gyflog na gweithwyr amser llawn, ac mae nifer anghymesur o weithwyr rhan-amser yn fenywod. Felly, rwy'n cydnabod bod yna ystod gyfan o strwythurau. Mae gan y Llywodraeth rôl i wneud rhywbeth yn ei gylch. Mae rhywfaint o hynny'n ymwneud ag arwain, a bod yn glir am y ffaith bod hon yn broblem ac yna nodi rhai o'r pethau y byddwn yn eu gwneud, o ran yr ymyrraeth rydym am ei gwneud yn y farchnad lafur a chael mwy o bobl i fod yn weithgar yn economaidd, ond hefyd drwy arfogi'r bobl hynny i gael mynediad at waith cyflogedig gwell. Dyna yw pwrpas yr hyfforddiant sgiliau, ond mae rhai o'r pwyntiau y mae Julie Morgan wedi bod yn eu hamlinellu am y cynnig gofal plant ac ehangu hwnnw'n bwysig hefyd, i roi mynediad ymarferol i bobl at gyfleoedd gwaith cyflogedig ac i sicrhau bod gofal plant yn fforddiadwy. Felly, mae angen ystod eang o wahanol fesurau i drawsnewid ac i fynd i'r afael â bylchau cyflog yn iawn, a gweithredu cyson i drawsnewid strwythurau sefydliadol, polisi a chanlyniadau. Mae angen i'r sector preifat chwarae eu rhan hefyd. Nid oes gennym yr holl gyfrifoldebau cyfreithiol yn y maes hwn, ond fel y dywedaf, rwy'n credu bod y rôl arweiniol sydd gennym yn wirioneddol bwysig, a dyna pam ein bod yn proffilio pobl sy'n gwneud y peth iawn wrth wobrwyo eu gweithlu a chydnabod y ffaith y dylai pawb gael eu talu'n deg. Mae hefyd, felly, yn ymwneud â'r ffaith nad yw gwaith teg yn rhywbeth sy'n ymwneud â chynrychiolaeth a sefydliadau undebau llafur yn unig. Mae'n ymwneud â'r holl bethau hyn a'r mathau o gwmnïau rydym am weithio gyda hwy, ac mae'n rhan o'r hyn rydym yn ei ddisgwyl gan bobl sydd eisiau cymorth o'r pwrs cyhoeddus yma yng Nghymru.
