Is the gender pay gap data inclusive of all employees, including non-binary individuals? 

Last updated on

No, WGEA’s gender pay gap data currently focuses on women and men. However, since 2020-21, employers can report non-binary employee data voluntarily. The proportion of employers doing so jumped from 8.8% in 2020-21 to 19% in 2022-23. Similarly, non-binary representation in the dataset grew from less than 0.1% to 0.2%. These strides show growing recognition of gender diversity in the workplace. However, with non-binary numbers still small and reporting being optional, this data isn’t yet included in the gender pay gap analysis.
