Gender Pay Gap
Collecting and publishing gender pay gap information is only the start of tackling gender inequality in your organisation. Tai Pawb’s exciting new member-only gender pay gap workshop programme, led by an expert in the field, will help you use your organisation’s employment and pay data to understand what is driving gender pay gaps, and discuss the long-term changes needed to prevent pay disparities being reproduced in each generation.
Our Gender Pay Gap Package
Three session workshop programme, led by Dr. Alison Parken, to consider pay gap drivers, collect and analyse evidence and to design solutions.
- Designed to bring 3 housing associations together, each bringing 2 or 3 staff members including, for example, HR Director, workforce planning, workforce analyst, operations director and service head.
- Participants will leave with an improved knowledge of how to analyse gender pay gap data, a completed pay gap analysis, better understanding of the causes of their gender pay gap and a clear plan to effect change in their own organisation.
- Specific to housing associations to address your sectoral needs.
Over the three sessions
- Expert input on causes of gender pay gaps, evidence from studies into employment and pay analyses and examples of change actions underway.
- Sharing and facilitated discussion of high level nondisclosive data and patterns between housing associations
- Training on setting up pay analysis
- Discussion and interpretation of your organisation’s pay analysis data
- Facilitated discussion of solutions and design actions to achieve change.
- In between workshops 2 and 3, participating housing associations will collate their pay analysis in preparation for analysis during the third workshop. The package includes a personal 1 hour telephone clinic with Alison for each RSL to be held up to 3 months after the workshops for further advice on implementing actions
