All organisations within the United Kingdom with more than 250 employees have been required since April 2017 to publish details of their gender pay gap. The specific requirements of the Equality Act 2010 Act (Gender Pay Gap Regulations) 2017 are to publish information for the six specific measures detailed in this report.
As of 31 March 2021 we can report that:
- The difference between the mean hourly rate of pay for men and that of women was 5.77%.
- The difference between the median hourly rate of pay for men and that of women was -2.72%.
The reason for the difference between the mean and median gender pay gap is that we employ a small number of clinicians whose pay we do not set. This includes NHS consultants who are contracted as Clinical Advisers. Based only on the employees whose salaries we do set, our mean pay gap is -2.73% and the median gap is 0%.
As at the 31 March 2021, PHSO employed 441staff of which 59% were female and 41% male.
