What is the Gender Pay Gap?
Gender Pay Gap is the difference in the total hourly remuneration between male and female employees. The Gender Pay Gap is presented through a number of measures including the difference in median and mean(average) hourly remuneration of all relevant male and female employees.
The mean gender Pay Gap is the difference between the average hourly pay of females
to that of males.
The median gender pay gap is the difference between the hourly pay of females to thatof the ‘middle male’.
It is important to note that the Gender Pay Gap is not the same as equal pay. Equal pay is a legal obligation as an employer to provide equal pay for equal work irrespective of gender. The Gender Pay Gap indicates the difference in average earnings between men and women.

In considering our Gender Pay Gap, it is of note that that on the overall Mean Calculation, the female rate is higher. however this is not reflected across the Business, as there are a number of operational roles that traditionally have been difficult to recruit females for.

range of actions:

We continue to develop our recruitment processes to attract a diverse range of talent and ensure alignment with industry best practices, focusing on inclusive job descriptions and diverse candidate pools.

further flexible working to support employees and retain the value they bring to our
business.
