In 2017, the Government released legislation for organisations in the UK with more than 250 employees to report their gender pay gap. At Portakabin, we believe this is a positive step towards addressing any potential gender bias in our industry and supports the fair representation of women in our workforce.

By understanding our Gender Pay Gap we can gain valuable insights on our people to help create a working environment that allows them to thrive as individuals. We work hard to ensure that through our culture, development routes and recruitment, we understand and celebrate our differences, and value everyone’s contribution.

  1. UNDERSTANDING THE GENDER PAY GAP

    It is important to remember gender pay is separate from equal pay. Equal pay refers to differences in pay for like-for-like work whereas the gender pay gap shows the difference between average hourly earnings of men and women across the entire organisation.

    In terms of equal pay, Portakabin follows rigorous processes to ensure all our jobs are fairly evaluated and priced according to externally benchmarked rates.

    We are confident that men and women are paid equally for doing like-for-like work across our business and we continually review our processes to ensure the best possible practice.

  2. WORKING TOWARDS CLOSING THE GAP

    As a business with core values of integrity and commitment we remain focused on understanding and managing the gap whilst continuing to ensure that we attract and retain the best talent to support our growing business.

    All employees benefit from our family friendly policies and our approach to working flexibly. Within our supportive culture we continue to identify and nurture talent thus ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to develop and grow to their full potential.

    In 2022 we will be running a new employee engagement survey which will give us the opportunity to understand the views of our employees globally on a range of topics including diversity and inclusion. We will take any actions deemed necessary to ensure we continue to operate within a safe and transparent culture creating a sense of belonging for everyone.
