Question to the Department for International Trade:
To ask the Secretary of State for International Trade, with reference to the UKEF Gender Pay Gap Report 2016-2017, if she will break down the pay gap data for (a) median, (b) mean and (c) bonus pay by (i) grade and (ii) profession.
UK Export Finance (UKEF) published its first Gender Pay Gap report on Monday 18 December, 2017. The full report can be found here:
UKEF’s pay gap for 2016/17 was (a) median: 16.26%, (b) mean: 15.97% and (c) bonus pay: 22.36%. The breakdown of the UKEF pay gap data is below. Figures which are preceded by a minus sign identify grades where female members of staff are paid more on average than male counterparts in the same grade.
Grade | Mean | Median | Bonus |
AA | -11% | -11% | N/A |
AO | 0% | 0% | N/A |
EO | -5% | -4% | -79% |
HEO | -6% | 0% | -53% |
SEO | 1% | 2% | -19% |
Grade 7 | 5% | 5% | 34% |
Grade 6 | 1% | 0% | -26% |
SCS | 7% | 4% | 39% |
To ensure figures are robust and meaningful, gender pay gaps within professions are presented where at least 100 men and 100 women are recorded in a profession. This is not possible for UKEF given our relatively small size.
