NHS South Yorkshire ICB is committed to promoting equality of opportunity for our workforce and tackling any workplace exclusion is important to ensure we demonstrate our values.
The gender pay gap differs from equal pay. Equal pay deals with the pay differences between men and women who carry out the same jobs, similar job or work of equal value. It is unlawful to pay people unequally because they are a man or a woman. NHS South Yorkshire ICB as an employer is not aware of any cases of unequal pay in the organisation at this time.
The Gender Pay Gap shows the difference in the average pay between men and women at NHS South Yorkshire ICB. It is important to note that as our workforce is predominantly female and the majority of part-time positions are occupied by female employees. This therefore impacts negatively on the pay gap by making the gap between male and female employees wider.
The information has been calculated using Agenda for Change employed staff. Each pay band has a set of pay points for annual progression. Therefore, the longer someone has been in post, the higher their salary, regardless of gender (subject to performance).
