Our 2019 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 2019. At this date Hillarys employed 1631 staff with 39% (641) being male and 61% (990) being female. The table below demonstrates that when compared to National statistics for the UK, Hillarys Gender Pay Gap is significantly lower than the UK average of 8.9% for median pay in 2019.

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.
