<p>ONS last published data on the average (median) hourly pay differences between
men and women in different ethnic groups in 2019 from the Annual Population Survey.</p><p>Pay
differences between men and women vary by ethnic groups. While in most ethnic groups
men earn more than women on average per hour, that is not the case in the Arab, Bangladeshi
or black Caribbean ethnic groups.</p><p>Where men earn more than women, the largest
pay difference is for people from the Indian ethnic group, where men earn £4.10 more
per hour on average. This is higher than the difference for the white British ethnic
group, where men earn £2.57 more per hour.</p><p><strong>Median hourly pay, 17 ethnic
