Gender Pay Gap Statement

GENDER PAY GAP REPORTING 05/04/2023

All private and public organisations in the UK with more than 250 employees are now required to report on their “Gender Pay Gap” (GPG). The GPG shows the difference between the average (mean or median) earnings of men and women, expressed as a percentage of men’s earnings. The regulations require the following specific calculations to be made:

• Mean gender pay gap
• Median gender pay gap
• Mean bonus gender pay gap
• Median bonus gender pay gap
• The proportion of males and females receiving a bonus payment
• The proportion of males and females in each quartile band

This is the first year that we have been required to report and we are pleased to share our gender pay figures as follows:
