Northumberland, Tyne and Wear NHS Foundation Trust Gender Pay Gap Report 2017 – 2018

There is a statutory requirement for organisations with 250 or more employees to report annually on their gender pay gap.

The gender pay gap shows the difference in the average pay between all men and women in the workplace. The gender pay gap is different to equal pay. Equal pay deals with the pay differences between men and women who carry out the same jobs, similar jobs, or work of equal value.

We support the fair treatment and reward for all of our staff irrespective of gender. Our pay system approach is based on the principles of fairness, consistency and transparency, irrespective of gender.

This report fulfils legislative requirements and sets out what our organisation is doing to close the gender pay gap.
