WGEA Gender Pay Gap Statement

At RGF Staffing APEJ, we strive to ensure we are a diverse and inclusive organisation and aim to reflect the communities we serve.

Embracing all aspects of diversity and the unique skills and experiences of our people is fundamental to our business success. We believe that diversity is at the core of our focus on providing “Opportunities for Life” where all individuals can live their lives to the fullest.

To achieve this, we use a variety of measures such as Engagement and Diversity surveys, remuneration analysis, and employee feedback forums to ensure we are listening to what our people want, and that the actions we are taking are having the desired impact on providing an equal experience for all our team members.

The analysis of our Gender Pay Gap suggests the main reason for this is that we have a lower proportion of women in management and leadership roles with a corresponding higher proportion of women in lower-level roles. Driving change in this area is something we have already starting working on, through the following initiatives and interventions:

• Committing to a target of 60% women in leadership roles by 2030, so our percentage of female leaders is more representative of the overall gender balance of our workforce.
• A hybrid work policy offering flexibility for start and finish times and the opportunity to work remotely empowering our people to achieve a healthy work/life integration to suit their individual needs.
• Engaging women through involvement in the RGF Staffing global Developing Female Leaders mentoring program.
• Ensuring representative shortlisting for all leadership vacancies, whilst still hiring on merit.
• Providing salary data to business leaders to consider any pay gaps in remuneration reviews.
• Support for women experiencing menopause in the introduction of the RGF Staffing Menstrual and Menopause Leave Policy ensuring comfort and well-being in the workplace.
• Consistent monitoring of differences by gender on our Employee Engagement and Diversity & Inclusion surveys to ensure targeted action can be taken as necessary.
• Successfully achieving accreditation from Work180 and Becoming an Endorsed Employer For All Women with regular consultation with Work180 to maintain and improve the experience of women working at RGF Staffing.

We recognise we have a way to go in terms of reducing our gender pay gap and we are committed to continuous improvement and ensuring that RGF Staffing APEJ continues to provide “opportunities for life” for all of our people.
