Search and compare gender pay gap data

If you are looking for data about a specific company or sector, you can search and compare gender pay gap data.

Any employer with 250 or more employees on a specific date each year (the ‘snapshot date’) must report their gender pay gap data.

You must report and publish your gender pay gap information within a year of your snapshot date. You must do this for every year that you have 250 or more employees on your snapshot date.
