The Gender Pay Gap is the difference between the average earnings of men and women expressed as a percentage of men?s earnings. It is not the same as equal pay, i.e. the difference between men and women who perform the same or similar roles.
The latest report is a snapshot of pay from 31 March 2018, when the gender split at the council was 40% male and 60% female.
The results can be used to assess the levels of gender equality in the council, the balance of male and female colleagues at different levels and explore how effective the council is at maximising and rewarding talent.
