The gender pay gap

The gender pay gap is the difference in the average hourly wage of all men and women across a workforce. If women do more of the less well paid jobs within an organisation than men, the gender pay gap is usually bigger.

Our latest report found that, in our organisation, women earn £1 for every £1 that men earn when comparing median hourly pay. Their median hourly pay is 0% lower than men’s.
