The gender pay gap is the difference between the average (mean or median) earnings of men and women across a workforce.
Gender pay gap calculations are based on employer payroll data drawn from a specific date each year. DHU is set the snapshot date of 5 April. We must report and publish our gender pay gap information by 4 April of the following year and include a written statement.
From 2017, employers with a headcount of 250 must comply with the Law on gender pay gap reporting. It is a legal requirement to publish a gender pay report within one year of the snapshot date.

DHU must calculate and provide the:
- Mean gender pay gap
- Median gender pay gap
- Mean bonus gender pay gap
- Median bonus gender pay gap
- Proportion of males receiving a bonus payment
- Proportion of females receiving a bonus payment
- Proportion of males and females in each quartile pay band
And a written statement, authorised by an appropriate senior person, which confirms the accuracy of their calculations.
The information must be published on our website and on a designated government website at www.gov.uk/genderpaygap.
