On average, females occupy higher paid roles than males at Donegal County Council, a new report has shown.

Donegal County Council has today published its Gender Pay Gap Report, highlighting the percentage difference between what men and women are paid on average in the organisation, irrespective of roles or levels. 

Donegal County Council employs a workforce of approximately 1,240 employees.

The 2023 report shows a Gender Pay Gap of -3.63%. This figure does not mean that males are paid less than females for doing the same job, but it does indicate that, on average, females occupy higher paid roles than males.

The proportion of females in the two higher Quartile Pay Bands reflects a higher proportion of females in senior roles in Donegal County Council.

There is a higher proportion of males in Band 2 (lower middle), reflecting that there are proportionately more males at lower grades that can affect the median pay gap.

Employers with more than 250 employees in Ireland are required to publish their gender pay gap data before the end of 2023 and within six months of their reference date. Donegal County Council and all local authorities in the country chose 30th June 2023 as the reference date. 

Approximately 17% of all the council’s employees on 30th June 2023 were working part-time. Of these, 69% were male and 31% were female.

Commenting following the publication of the report, Cahal Moss HR Manager said: “Publishing our gender pay gap data helps to reinforce our focus on supporting an open and inclusive workplace at Donegal County Council. Our organisation is a place where all employees have the same opportunities for recognition and career development and are treated fairly and equitably at work. We continue to be committed to addressing workplace barriers to equality and creating an open and inclusive workplace community. Many equality, diversity and inclusion initiatives and supports are already in place, and we will continue to work in this area.”
