Guardian analysis shows median gender pay gap is stubbornly wide at 9.4%, same level as five years ago
Four out of five companies and organisations in the UK still pay their male employees more than female ones, according to Guardian analysis of the government’s gender pay gap reporting.
The median pay gap remains stubbornly wide at 9.4% – the same level as in 2017-18, when employers were first required to publish the information. About 10,000 companies and public bodies filed their gender pay gaps to the government’s reporting mechanism before this week’s deadline.
