Understanding the Gender Pay Gap This year WaterWipes (Ireland) is reporting a Mean Gender Pay Gap of -1.09%. At present, approximately 42% of our workforce is comprised of women, and 58% is comprised of men. The main drivers of our Gender Pay Gaps are: Organisational distribution. The distribution of colleagues who are female are weighted more towards the more senior levels of the organisation compared to men colleagues. More senior roles typically correspond with higher pay and specific bonus schemes, increasing the Gender Pay Gap in favour of women. Occupational Segregation: A larger male employee population in entry-level and operations functions, which are typically lower-paying roles, contributes to the overall pay gap. This reflects traditional gender norms and job preferences in the manufacturing sector.
