BrisDoc Healthcare Services: Gender Pay Gap Summary 2023/24

Introduction

At BrisDoc, we are committed to creating an inclusive culture where everyone, regardless of gender, can thrive. Our commitment to gender equality is reflected in our workforce, which continues to be predominantly female across all levels, including senior leadership. Ensuring fairness and transparency in remuneration remains a key priority, as we work towards reducing gender-based disparities.

Understanding the Gender Pay Gap

The gender pay gap measures the difference in average earnings between men and women within an organisation. It is different from equal pay, which ensures men and women are paid equally for the same or equivalent work. The gender pay gap is influenced by workforce composition and the distribution of men and women across different pay levels.

BrisDoc’s Gender Pay Gap

For the reporting period as of April 2024:

  • The median gender pay gap at BrisDoc is -32.3%, meaning the midpoint hourly pay for men is 32.3% lower than for women.
  • The mean gender pay gap is -5.9%, indicating that, on average, women earn 5.9% more per hour than men.

These figures continue to contrast sharply with national trends, where men typically earn more than women on average. Compared to the UK national median gender pay gap of 14.3% (2022) and the NHS’s 14.7% (2022), BrisDoc remains ahead in gender pay equity.

Workforce Composition

BrisDoc employs a workforce that is 72.0% female and 28.0% male. Representation by gender across the pay quartiles is as follows:

  • Lower quartile: 67.9% female / 32.1% male
  • Lower middle quartile: 68.4% female / 31.6% male
  • Upper middle quartile: 78.5% female / 21.5% male
  • Upper quartile: 73.4% female / 26.6% male

These figures demonstrate a strong representation of women at all pay levels, reinforcing our commitment to gender balance and career progression.

Bonuses and Awards

Our analysis of non-contractual bonuses and awards highlights that:

  • The median bonus for women is 39.4% higher than for men.
  • The mean bonus for women is 9.6% higher than for men.
  • 81.9% of women received a bonus, compared to 75.4% of men.

We remain committed to reviewing our bonus structures to ensure they continue to reflect fair and inclusive recognition of contributions across our workforce.

Progress Over Time

BrisDoc has consistently worked towards reducing gender-based pay disparities. Over recent years, we have seen an increase in female representation in senior roles, contributing to the negative gender pay gap observed in our latest data.

Looking Forward

While our gender pay gap results are positive, we remain committed to continuous improvement. Our future focus will include:

  • Regularly evaluating our pay structures to ensure fairness and transparency.
  • Reviewing our recruitment, development, and promotion processes to support equal opportunities.
  • Enhancing flexible working policies to support all employees in achieving career progression.
  • Continuing to monitor bonus structures to ensure they support equitable outcomes.

Conclusion

BrisDoc is proud of its strong gender representation and commitment to pay equity. We will continue to uphold a proactive and transparent approach, ensuring that all employees, regardless of gender, have equal opportunities to succeed and thrive within BrisDoc.
