Gender Pay Gap Report 2022
We are an employer required by law to carry out Gender Pay Reporting under the Equality Act 2010 (Gender Pay Gap Information) Regulations 2017.
This involves carrying out six calculations that show the difference between the average earnings of men and women in our organisation which are shown below; it will not involve publishing individual employees data.
The gender pay gap is the difference in average pay between the men and women in our workforce. It is different to equal pay, which means we must pay men and women the same for equal or similar work.
We are required to publish the results on our own website and a government website. We will do this each calendar year in relation to the snapshot date of 5 April of the previous year. This report therefore refers to the snapshot date of 5 April 2022.
We can use these results to assess:
- The levels of gender equality in our workplace
- The balance of male and female employees at different levels
- How effectively talent is being maximised and rewarded.
The challenge in our organisation and across Great Britain is to eliminate any gender pay gap.

Understanding the Gender Pay Gap
Hesley Group’s workforce has more female employees (69%) than male employees (31%) which is consistent with the previous year. These splits are representative of the care sector in general.
Our median pay gap is -1.9%, which is in favour of female employees. Our mean pay gap is 11.6%, in favour of males. These figures are significantly lower than the ONS national pay gap among all employees which fell from 15.1% in 2021 to 14.9% in 2022.
The proportion of men and women receiving bonuses was low in this year.
Across the pay quartiles the spread of males and females is fairly consistent between years with Women making up between 64% and 76% of the workforce. The Upper Quartile saw the most movement where males rose by 6% as a result of new position hirers in the executive team.
Hesley Group is committed to treating all employees fairly regardless of gender and to ensure equality has a range of policies and procedures to facilitate this with a transparent pay structure in place.
I confirm the data reported is accurate.
