answer text Gender pay gap data for the Valuation Office Agency for median, mean and bonus pay by (a) grade is set out in the attached table below. The Valuation Office Agency does not have any analysis of gender pay gap by (b) profession. A positive figure denotes that the mean, or median, figure for women is lower than for men; a negative figure denotes that the mean, or median, figure is higher for women than men. Both SCS and Fast Stream populations are fairly small and the median gap figures for bonus awards are affected by the fact that there are a limited number of bonus award levels.<p> </p><p>2017 VOA Gender Pay Gap by Grade</p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p>Grade</p></td><td><p>Mean gender pay gap Ordinary pay 31 March 2017</p></td><td><p>Median gender pay gap Ordinary pay 31 March 2017</p></td><td><p>Mean gender pay gap Bonus pay in the 12 months ending 31 March 2017</p></td><td><p>Median gender pay gap Bonus pay in the 12 months ending 31 March 2017</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>AA</p></td><td><p>-4.5%</p></td><td><p>-13.5%</p></td><td><p>-2.6%</p></td><td><p>0.0%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>AO</p></td><td><p>-5.6%</p></td><td><p>-10.4%</p></td><td><p>0.9%</p></td><td><p>0.0%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>EO</p></td><td><p>-4.0%</p></td><td><p>-4.0%</p></td><td><p>-17.2%</p></td><td><p>-33.3%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>HEO</p></td><td><p>0.3%</p></td><td><p>-0.5%</p></td><td><p>-10.7%</p></td><td><p>0.0%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Fast Stream</p></td><td><p>-6.3%</p></td><td><p>-5.8%</p></td><td><p>-41.2%</p></td><td><p>0.0%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>SEO</p></td><td><p>2.1%</p></td><td><p>-0.4%</p></td><td><p>-3.0%</p></td><td><p>-50.0%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>G7</p></td><td><p>-0.4%</p></td><td><p>0.0%</p></td><td><p>-8.5%</p></td><td><p>0.0%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>G6</p></td><td><p>-0.8%</p></td><td><p>-4.7%</p></td><td><p>3.5%</p></td><td><p>0.0%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>SCS</p></td><td><p>3.6%</p></td><td><p>9.9%</p></td><td><p>13.6%</p></td><td><p>0.0%</p></td></tr></tbody></table>

Its collective aim is to make the Civil Service the UK’s most inclusive employer by 2020. Its new Diversity &amp; Inclusion Strategy outlines how it plans to achieve this.
