Laing O\u2019Rourke has recorded the lowest inequality in pay between men and women among Britain\u2019s top 40 main contractors for the second year running.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/header>\n

\n

The firm\u2019s record on equal pay was revealed as construction employers with over 250 staff published their gender pay gap figures for the second time.<\/p>\n

The Government hopes the data will shine a light on the barriers preventing women from reaching the top.<\/p>\n

Construction ranks as one of the worst industry\u2019s for pay inequality with women paid a third less than men on average.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0 returns by leading main contractors reveal Laing O\u2019Rourke is way ahead on pay equality with women on average paid 12% less than men.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Companies had to file data based on a \u201csnapshot\u201d of their payroll taken on 5 April 2018.<\/p>\n

The listing of the top 40 main contractors is ranked by the median, which gives a good sense of where a company is overall, the mean figures will include the outliers with large salaries.<\/p>\n

\n

\n
<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The mean hourly rate is the average hourly wage across the entire organisation so the mean gender pay gap is a measure of the difference between women\u2019s mean hourly wages and men\u2019s mean hourly wages.<\/p>\n

The median hourly rate is calculated by ranking all employees from the highest paid to the lowest paid, and taking the hourly wage of the person in the middle; so the median gender pay gap is the difference between women\u2019s median hourly wage (the middle paid woman) and men\u2019s median hourly wage (the middle paid man).<\/p>\n
