Women and Equalities written question – answered at on 7 February 2017.
To ask the Minister for Women and Equalities, what the level of earnings is of the (a) highest and (b) lowest-paid employees of her Department, its agencies and arms-length bodies; and what the median level of earnings is for such employees.
As at December 2016 (latest figures available), for staff in the Government Equalities Office (GEO), the level of earnings of the highest and lowest paid employees and the median level of earnings is:
GEO Paid staff Dec16 | |
Highest Paid | *£90,000 |
Lowest Paid | *£24,380 |
Median | *£43,740 |
(*Please note these figures are ‘rounded’ to the nearest £5 in line with the Department’s published pay data).
The Equality and Human Rights Commission is an independent body and makes its own decisions about its staff salaries. I have therefore asked the Chief Executive of the Commission to write to the honourable member responding to the question. I will place a copy of the letter in the libraries of both Houses.
