The University has today published its statutory gender pay gap data for 2020.
We are pleased to see a continued narrowing of our mean gender pay gap, which has reduced every year since statutory gender pay gap reporting commenced in 2018. However, our median gender pay gap has widened slightly in this year’s data. You can view our full gender pay gap submission on the Government’s Gender Pay Gap Service.
As confirmed by our regular equal pay reviews, the most recent of which was published last month, we are confident that our gender pay gap does not stem from paying men and women differently for work of equal value; the calculations instead reflect the significant gender differences in occupations across the University and the fact there are fewer women at higher pay grades. Despite this, it is clear that we have much to do to address the imbalances borne out by these pay gaps. You can read our equal pay reviews and find out more about our gender pay gap reports on the University website.
