Pay gap reporting
We report not only our gender pay gap,
but also our ethnicity pay gap, and actively
campaign for other large companies to follow suit.
Our fifth combined Gender and Ethnicity Pay Gap Report
(published in November 2024, reporting the pay gap as
at 5 April 2024) details our commitment to creating a diverse
and inclusive work community that enhances our culture.
We are pleased to report that we continue to make progress in reducing our gender pay gaps. Our mean gender pay gap decreased by 0.2% (2023: 2.3% decrease), and our median pay gap decreased by 0.7% (2023: 3.3%). We continued to make good progress during the reporting period in retaining women in upper quartiles within our business, with only 15% of leavers coming from this group, compared to 53% for men.
Overall, we have increased our women hires, with 52% of all new starters being women within the last 12 months, a 6% increase year on year. We are pleased to have achieved our goal of reaching an equal gender split across our recruitment campaigns.
This year, we have further strengthened our maternity and family leave policies to provide even greater support for women and families throughout their careers. We also introduced our Company funded Menopause Plan which provides personalised support for employees struggling to manage their symptoms.
We believe these enhancements will further boost our retention of women in the future. We do however recognise that there is still work to do here, specifically maintaining that equal representation when hiring into senior roles.
