The full report can be found here:</p><p> </p><p><a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/uk-export-finance-ukef-gender-pay-gap-report-2016-to-2017/ukef-gender-pay-gap-report-2016-to-2017" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/uk-export-finance-ukef-gender-pay-gap-report-2016-to-2017/ukef-gender-pay-gap-report-2016-to-2017</a></p><p> </p><p>UKEF’s pay gap for 2016/17 was (a) median: 16.26%, (b) mean: 15.97% and (c) bonus pay: 22.36%. The breakdown of the UKEF pay gap data is below. Figures which are preceded by a minus sign identify grades where female members of staff are paid more on average than male counterparts in the same grade.</p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p><strong>Grade</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Mean</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Median</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Bonus</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>AA</p></td><td><p>-11%</p></td><td><p>-11%</p></td><td><p>N/A</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>AO</p></td><td><p>0%</p></td><td><p>0%</p></td><td><p>N/A</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>EO</p></td><td><p>-5%</p></td><td><p>-4%</p></td><td><p>-79%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>HEO</p></td><td><p>-6%</p></td><td><p>0%</p></td><td><p>-53%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>SEO</p></td><td><p>1%</p></td><td><p>2%</p></td><td><p>-19%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Grade 7</p></td><td><p>5%</p></td><td><p>5%</p></td><td><p>34%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Grade 6</p></td><td><p>1%</p></td><td><p>0%</p></td><td><p>-26%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>SCS</p></td><td><p>7%</p></td><td><p>4%</p></td><td><p>39%</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p>To ensure figures are robust and meaningful, gender pay gaps within professions are presented where at least 100 men and 100 women are recorded in a profession. This is not possible for UKEF given our relatively small size.</p>
