House of Lords written question – answered on 19th May 2009.
To ask Her Majesty's Government what pay gaps there are in respect of gender, race and disability among employees of the Department for Culture, Media and Sport.
Pay gaps by gender for the Department for Culture, Media and Sport are published in the Civil Service Statistics, and are set out below.
Department for Culture, Media and Sport | Median Earnings | Mean Earnings | ||||
Male | Female | % Diff | Male | Female | % Diff | |
32,130 | 27,600 | 14.1 | 37,640 | 30,920 | 17.9 |
The equal pay audit conducted by the department in 2007 found that determining pay gaps by ethnicity and disability was limited due to the small sample sizes available for both groups, and no firm findings could be inferred.
