Chisholm Hunter and the Gender Pay Gap - Exclusive Report
- 6 Apr 2018
You may have read about the Gender Pay Gap debate which has been widely publicised on various news outlets recently, this week was the deadline for all UK companies with over 250 employees to publish their Gender Pay Gap findings. This is a particularly interesting topic in the UK Jewellery Industry, an industry which is typically dominated by women in the retail sector and men at a managerial level. WatchPro published an article today regarding the findings of the Gender Pay Gap publications and with it, comes some quite interesting statistics.
Often companies will make excuses for the reason their Gender Pay Gap is larger than the UK average or industry average, however there is no such excuse at Chisholm Hunter. We are exceptionally proud to be the UK's most equal paying mutli-store jeweller. With an overall Gender Pay Gap of only 4.3% we are heads and shoulders above our competition in this regard.
We are incredibly proud that Chisholm Hunter does not have any notable gender pay gap. Our business has always been based on a meritocracy and I guess that these newly published figures go some way in reinforcing the fact that Chisholm Hunter rewards are based on merit rather than any sort of entitlement, says Harry Brown, managing director of Chisholm Hunter.
Chisholm Hunter are proud to pave the way for UK Jewellers to an industry that offers equality for both men and women.
