Ethnicity Pay Gap Statistics

Unlike the gender pay gap there is no legal requirement to calculate or disclose ethnicity pay gap data. However we have decided to calculate this to mark our commitment to diversity and inclusion.

What is an ethnicity pay gap?

The ethnicity pay gap shows the difference in average pay between white employees and 'other' ethnicities. 

A percentage of 15% would show ‘other’ ethnicities earn 15% less than white employees per hour’. If the figure was -15% it would mean ‘other’ ethnicities earn 15% more than white employees per hour’.

As with the gender pay gap, it is different to equal pay, which is a legal requirement to pay everyone the same for equal or similar work.
