Annual Gender Pay Gap Report

Fingal County Council has published its Gender Pay Gap Report for 2023. The gender pay gap is the difference in the average hourly wage of men and women across a workforce. Employers with more than 250 employees in Ireland are required to publish their gender pay gap data annually. 

Our 2023 report shows the gender breakdown of all employees was 53% male and 47% female. The Mean Gender Pay Gap shows that on average, males are paid 1.65% more than females. The Median Gender Pay Gap shows that the median rate of pay for females is 9.31% higher than the median rate of pay for males. These figures highlight the headway we have made compared to 2022.

The Chief Executive of Fingal County Council, AnnMarie Farrelly said: “Six of the 11 members of our Executive Management Team are female, and we are 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 our work in this area.”
