We have today published the Gender Pay Gap in Jersey report for June 2025.
The gender pay gap measures the difference in average hourly earnings between males and females, expressed as a percentage. A value above zero indicates that, on average, males earn more than females; a negative value indicates that females earn more.
The key findings for June 2025 are:
- The median hourly rate was £22.88 for males and £21.70 for females, resulting in an overall gender pay gap of 5.4%.
- The 12‑month average median hourly rate was £22.34 for males and £21.08 for females, giving a 6.0% gender pay gap, 1.8 percentage points lower than in June 2024 (7.8%).
- Higher gender pay gaps were observed among age groups over 40, compared with the overall average.
- The information and communication sector recorded the highest gender pay gap, at 30.0%.
