Fire Ethnicity Pay Gap Report 2023-24
The Ethnicity Pay Gap (EPG) is different to equal pay, it shows the difference in the average hourly rate of pay between employee’s ethnicities. This involves carrying out calculations that show the difference between the average earnings of the various ethnicities in our organisation – this covers all individuals in the organisation (both firefighters and staff); it does not involve publishing individual employees’ data. The data used for the calculations is the Fire & Rescue Service’s pay data as of 31st March 2024.
We are required to publish the results on a government ethnicity pay gap website, and in addition it is advisable to publish the high-level results on the Northamptonshire Fire & Rescue Services website alongside pay and transparency data.
Ethnicity pay reporting is used to assess:
- the levels of ethnic equality in the workplace
- the balance of employees ethnicity at different levels
