Greenhalgh’s Craft Bakery Gender Pay Gap Report 2018

UK companies with over 250 employees have to report on their gender pay gap annually.

At Greenhalgh’s Craft Bakery we are committed to treating our employees equally and ensuring that everyone – no matter what their background, race, ethnicity or gender – has an opportunity to develop. We are certain that any gender pay gap is not caused by men and women being paid differently to do the same job, but is driven by the structure of our workforce.

Gender Pay & Bonus Pay Gap

As of the snapshot date (5 April 2018) the table below shows the overall mean and median gender pay gap and bonus pay gap based on hourly rates of pay. The percentage shown is the difference in the overall mean and median pay and bonus between men and women.

Proportion of males and females in each pay quartile

We have divided the workforce intofour equal size pay quartile bands. The table below shows the proportion of males and females within each quartile band expressed as a percentage.

Proportion of male employees in upper quartile band 47.00%

Proportion of female employees in upper quartile band 53.00%

Proportion of male employees in upper middle quartile band 42.50%

Proportion of female employees in upper middle quartile band 57.50%

Proportion of male employees in lower middle quartile band 26.50%

Proportion of female employees in lower middle quartile band 73.50%

Proportion of male employees in lower quartile band 19.10%

Proportion of female employees in lower quartile band 80.90%

In common with many other businesses, particularly those in our sector, we employ many more females than males in front line retail operations. This includes a number of young employees under the age of 20 working on a part time basis. This is not the case in the top pay quartile where the proportions of male and female employees are much closer.
