Gender Pay Gap Report

April 2023

Gender Pay Gap Report | 2

Summary

We are committed to promoting equality of opportunity in all our working practices.

Our aim is to ensure that our workforce reflects the diversity of our customers. Every employee is treated with dignity and respect and given the opportunity to reach their full potential for the mutual benefit of the business and our employees.

Gender pay reporting legislation requires employers with 250 or more employees to publish statutory calculations every year showing how large the pay gap is between their male and female employees.

We are an employer required by law to carry out Gender Pay Reporting under the Equality Act 2010 (Gender Pay Gap Information) Regulations 2017.

This involves carrying out six calculations that show the difference between the average earnings of men and women in our organisation; it will not involve publishing individual employee's data.

We are required to publish the results on our own website and a government website. We will do this within one calendar year of April 5th 2023.

Commentary

The 2023 Gender Pay Gap Report presents a comprehensive analysis of gender-based wage disparities, shedding light on both persistent challenges and areas of progress within the workforce.

Firstly, the examination of bonus pay reveals notable changes from 2022 to 2023. The difference in mean bonus pay between genders decreased significantly. Similarly, the difference in median bonus pay also decreased substantially in 2023.

In addition to bonus pay differentials, the report highlights the distribution of male and female employees across quartile pay bands. In the lower quartile, the proportion of male employees decreased in 2023, while the proportion of female employees increased during the same period. This shift suggests progress towards gender balance in the lower pay bands with more women entering this quartile compared to men.

In the upper quartile, the proportion of male employees remained higher, with a slight increase from 2022. On the other hand, the proportion of female employees in the upper quartile slightly decreased.

The proportion of female employees increased in the upper middle quartile indicating a positive trend towards greater gender representation in higher-paying roles, although a notable disparity persists.

Furthermore, the data reveals nuanced changes in gender representation across the lower middle quartile where the proportion of female employees decreased from 2022.

Cineworld continues to encourage our female employees to take on roles that are more senior and ensure that all development programmes are available to everyone irrespective of their gender.

Cineworld remains committed to continuing its good work in the whole area of gender pay in the years to come.
