Gender pay gap report 2021

Gender pay gap reporting is now a legal requirement for all large organisations. The results can be used to assess the levels of gender equality in our organisation.

The information below is the Gender Pay Gap Report for Kent and Medway Clinical Commissioning Group. The CCG was closed on 30 June 2022 and replaced by the NHS Kent and Medway Integrated Care Board. Staff from the CCG transferred into NHS Kent and Medway. 

Reports for NHS Kent and Medway will be published here in due course.

2021 Gender Pay Gap - KMCCG

It is important to note that the gender pay gap differs from equal pay for equal work.

The gender pay gap shows the difference in the average hourly rates of pay for men and women right across the organisation.

The median pay gap for KMCCG was 15.8 per cent, which means that the median hourly rate of pay for women in KMCCG was 15.8 per cent lower than the median hourly rate of pay for men.

What contributes to it?

  • The gender pay gap shows the difference in the average hourly rate of pay for men and women.
  • There are a higher proportion of male colleagues represented in the upper quartile of the organisation in comparison with the overall total.
  • There are a lower proportion of male colleagues represented in the lower quartile of the organisation in comparison with the overall total.

I confirm that the gender pay gap information provided in this report is accurate.
