Gender Pay Gap
NNL has a well-established pay structure, so we believe the gender pay gap reflects the higher percentage of women who are in their early careers or in less senior roles.
As can be seen in Figure 4, the trend over time is relatively static for the mean (or median) pay gap, with small variations in recent years. The increase in recent recruitment may have contributed to this, particularly recruitment into early careers roles such as apprenticeships as these have a greater proportion of women than recruitment into more senior roles. As those women recruited into less senior roles progress through the business, we hope this will lead to a gradual decrease of the pay gap.
