UNSW records 1.4 per cent gender pay gap
"Gender pay equity is critical to a healthy society and an inclusive culture. Weve worked hard to put in place strategies to close the gender pay gap and to keep it closed. The Workplace Gender Equality Agencys publication of this data is a very useful tool, providing transparency for all. However, while Im proud of where we stand based on this data, we cannot be complacent. We need to continue to progress, to drive forward and take meaningful action to ensure pay and opportunities are equitable at UNSW."
UNSW Vice-Chancellor and President Attila Brungs
UNSW records a median total remuneration gender pay gap of 1.4% as the Workplace Gender Equality Agencys publish gender pay gap results for organisations across Australia.
UNSW welcomed WGEAs decision to publish gender pay gap data as this ensures transparency and holds organisations to account in openly acknowledging disparities and taking responsibility for addressing them.
Core to UNSWs commitment to inclusion and equity is a commitment to fairness and progress knowing gender pay equity is critical to a healthy society and an inclusive culture.
A gender pay gap of 1.4% is the smallest total remuneration gender gap amongst the G08 and a positive result at a national, industry and organisational level.泭This positive result is underpinned by a number of key drivers and initiatives working under the UN's Gender Equality Sustainable Development Goal including:
- Gender equal recruitment policies and process.
- The Enterprise Agreement for Academic and Professional staff including equal pay and flexible working arrangements and parental and carers leave.
- Sage Athena Swan, an institutional award received in 2018 for work and ongoing commitment to advancing gender equity and diversity in higher education and research.
- The Gendered Violence Research Network, one of Australias leading research hubs for investigating, exploring and finding solutions to prevent gendered violence.
- Pathway to Politics for Women, a non-partisan initiative that aims to address the underrepresentation of women in Australian politics.
- Transforming Womens Leadership Pathways, an international initiative of the (Arizona State University, Kings College London and UNSW Sydney) to dramatically shift the dial on womens equity, and to broaden pathways to leadership for women by 2030.
- The Women in Research Network, a leading forum for research-active women to progress gender equity across the University泭 through the trifecta of support, information and advocacy.
- The Womens Wellbeing Academy, established to positively impact womens wellbeing, nationally and globally, through multidisciplinary collaborative research, practice, teaching and programs that advance gender equity and equality.
It is further supported by the launch of UNSWs first Gender Equity Strategy泭which aligns efforts across Human Resources, EDI, and the Faculties and Divisions so staff of all genders, ethnicities, faiths, heritages, abilities, sexual orientation, age, religious and cultural backgrounds can be represented and recognised, with access to the tools and support to succeed at all levels of employment.
