Our 2018 Gender Pay Gap Report

Gender pay gap reporting requires employers with 250 or more employees to publish statutory calculations every year showing how large the pay gap is between their male and female employees. The Gender pay gap report is based on data as at 5th April 2018. At this date Hillarys employed 1497 staff with 41% (613) being male and 59% (884) being female. The table below demonstrates that when compared to National statistics for the UK, Hillarys Gender Pay Gap is lower than the UK average of 9.6% for median pay and has dropped considerably at Hillarys from last year’s 6%.

A large number of roles within Hillarys are defined by role titles particularly in the areas of production, contact centre and administration. Within these roles, which account for almost three quarters of staff employed by the Hillarys’ Group, male and female employees are paid equally for doing equivalent jobs. The gender pay gap identified above, whilst considerably lower than the national average is driven by the fact that a higher proportion of the women employed by the group are employed within production, contact centre and administrative roles.

At Hillarys we always recruit the best person for the role, regardless of gender.
