Gender equality benchmarks About this document This Workplace Gender Equality Agency ('the WGEA' or ‘the Agency’) benchmark report provides a comparison of gender equality indicators (six GEIs as defined in the Workplace Gender Equality Act 2012) for women and men in your organisation and selected comparison group. This report is intended to help you identify areas where your organisation is performing strongly and other areas where you may be able to make improvements in gender equality. It is based on reporting data supplied to the WGEA for the reporting year 2014 - 15, and includes data supplied as part of the workplace profile and the reporting questionnaire. The data that your organisation supplied is presented in yellow alongside the comparison group you have chosen in grey. Benchmark comparison groups can be chosen by ANZSIC (Australian and New Zealand Standard Industry Classification) and by organisation size (number of employees). This benchmark report provides a profile of gender equality at ABC Manufacturing compared to the average for the comparison group that you have chosen:

Organisation size: 0-249 employees

Industry category: Manufacturing (C)

The comparison group you have chosen contains 289 organisations and employs 43,681 individuals. Other comparison groups that you could choose to run as separate reports (under the benchmarks tab on the reporting portal) include organisations with:

→ Basic Chemical and Chemical Product Manufacturing (ANZSIC: 18)

→ 0-249 employees - Basic Chemical and Chemical Product Manufacturing (ANZSIC: 18)

→ Basic Chemical Manufacturing (ANZSIC: 181)

→ All reporting organisations

→ Manufacturing (ANZSIC: C)

Please note that some benchmarks may not be available in all report formats. Any benchmarks that are unavailable have been noted in the document.

Further information A Benchmarks Technical User Manual has also been prepared to help you with understanding the development of this report and the ways in which the data have been used. It also contains detailed information about how the calculations were made and the statistical analyses undertaken. A Benchmarks Insights Guide has been developed and is available on the website. It is designed to assist you in interpreting this report and includes suggestions about how to use the benchmarks to build strategies and achieve optimal performance in gender equality. To explore the data further, see the WGEA’s data explorer.

About workplace gender equality Gender equality is achieved when both women and men are able to access and enjoy the same rewards, resources and opportunities.

Achieving gender equality is important for workplaces not only because it is ‘fair’ and ‘the right thing to do’, but because it is vitally important to the bottom line of a business and to the productivity of our nation.

Gender equality in the workplace means equal access to opportunities and outcomes for both women and men. Achieving this requires:

→ the removal of barriers to the full and equal participation of women in the workforce

→ full and genuine access to all occupations and industries, including leadership roles, for women and men

→ elimination of discrimination on the basis of gender particularly in relation to family and caring responsibilities for both women and men

→ workplaces to provide equal remuneration for women and men for work of equal or comparable value.

Achieving better gender equality in your organisation can help your organisation to:

→ attract the best employees

→ reduce the cost of staff turnover

→ enhance organisational performance

→ improve access to target markets

→ minimise legal risks

→ enhance reputation

→ boost employee engagement.

The graphs and tables below show the talent pipeline for women and men in your organisation and comparison group by displaying the gender composition of managerial employees in each category of management. The ‘talent pipeline’ refers to the levels through which employees must progress to reach the top of the organisation. However, often as the level of management responsibility increases, the percentage of women at each level decreases. SAMPLE ONLY

GEI 2: Gender composition of governing bodies/boards Reporting under gender equality indicator 2 (GEI 2) provides information about the gender composition of the governing body in a standardised format. The term ‘governing body’ used in this indicator is broad, and means a board of directors, trustees, committee of management, council or other governing authority of the employer. Governing bodies represent the highest level of decision-making responsibility in organisations.

Relevant questions in the reporting questionnaire relate to:

→ the existence of governing bodies/boards → the gender composition of the governing bodies/boards and any gender targets set for them.

The tables and graphs presented in this section of the benchmark report show the results for your organisation and comparison group on a range of indicators, as follows:

GEI 3: Equal remuneration between women and men Reporting under gender equality indicator 3 (GEI 3) provides information about the remuneration of women and men in a standardised format.

In addition to salary data collected as part of the workplace profile, relevant questions in the reporting questionnaire relate to:

→ the existence of a formal policy or formal strategy on remuneration → the inclusion and nature of gender pay equity objectives in formal remuneration policies or

strategies → whether any gender remuneration gap analysis has been undertaken → any action taken as a result of a gender remuneration gap analysis.

Please note: Gender pay gaps are calculated on averaged, annualised, full-time equivalent salaries. This means that all employees – part-time, full-time, casual and contract – are included in the calculation and the salaries of those who are not full-time employees are converted to a full-time equivalent.

Gender pay gaps are expressed as a percentage of men’s earnings. A negative value means that women’s earnings are higher than men’s.
