This is the third year in which we are required to publish calculations to show the pay gap between our male and female team members.
We remain committed to the principles of equal pay and opportunity for all team members. Our values are Ambition, Dedication, Integrity, Kindness and Teamwork, and we strive to ensure fairness for all.Salaries are paid according to role, experience and performance, irrespective of gender or background and we are proud to offer flexibility across our teams with a variety of roles and hours.
The gender pay gap is the difference between the average hourly earnings of men and women within the organisation and so compares people across different levels of the organisation. It is not a comparison of pay for people undertaking the same role.
The gender pay gap report for Hall & Woodhouse Limited is as follows by reference to 5 April 2019:
1. Median Gender Pay Gap – 5.74%
2. Mean Gender Pay Gap – 23.6%
3. Mean Bonus Gender Pay Gap – 56.3%
4. Median Bonus Gender Pay Gap – 0%
5. The proportion of males receiving a bonus: 34%; the proportion of females receiving a bonus: 23%
6. Our pay quartiles are as follows:
| Top Quartile | Upper Middle |
| Male 71% | Male 62% |
| Female 29% | Female 38% |
| Lower Middle | Lower Quartile |
| Male 38% | Male 39% |
| Female 62% | Female 61% |
We believe the existence of a pay gap remains due to the fact that, at the moment, many of our senior positions are filled by men.
It remains our aim to attract and retain the best people and to reflect our communities. We want to ensure that everyone at Hall & Woodhouse has an opportunity to progress and develop. We have set out our aspiration to be a Times Top 100 Employer by 2027, and as part of that, we will be actively considering how to ensure that opportunities at every level are available and attractive to all team regardless of gender, age, race, ethnicity and background.

Following the Government’s instruction on the 20th March 2020, we have temporarily closed our doors to protect our guests and our team from the risk of spreading COVID-19.
We are now focussing on the immediate future and how we can continue to make people’s day during the temporary closure of our pubs. We will also ensure that we are well prepared to re-open when it is right to do so.
We continue to brew our award-winning Badger beer at our Blandford Brewery, which you can buy online HERE
