The mean pay gap is the difference between average hourly earnings of men and women. The median

takes all the hourly rates and lines them up in order from lowest to highest and picks the middle most

Commentary
Our mean gender pay gap remains below the national average by 3.5ppt and our
median gender pay gap is at zero. The majority of our mean pay gap can be
attributed to a higher proportion of women relative to men in the lower pay levels.
We continue to have a good balance of women in senior roles with 50% of positions
reporting directly to the CEO being held by women.
We continue to focus our recruitment strategy of actively seeking candidates from
the widest talent pools, both externally and within the organisation and ensure that
women and men are paid equally for doing the same job.
