What is the gender pay gap?

The gender pay gap is the difference in average earnings for men and women. It is typically expressed as a percentage of men's earnings. Despite significant progress in gender equality over the years, pay gaps still exist across many industries and professions. These gaps are influenced by various factors, including occupational segregation, underrepresentation of women in senior roles and unequal access to opportunities for career advancement. Understanding the factors behind the gender pay gap is essential for promoting fairness and inclusion.

The Equality Act 2010 brought together a range of existing discrimination laws under a single statute and requires employers with 250 or more employees to publish details of their ‘gender pay gaps’. However, while this statistical calculation tells us nothing about discrimination or gender inequality per se and the figure can be affected by a range of issues that have very little to do with direct employer discrimination, it can indicate something about the indirect issues that can affect progression for women employees and other staff with protected characteristics and therefore relative pay outcomes for these groups.
