“At the G37 senior management level, we have a strong female talent group of consistent high performers as well as external joiners with solid experience. As a result, their base salaries are 19 percent higher than males,” the company notes.

BAT says the pay gap is impacted by years of service and the annual salary review.

“From our most recent analysis, our male population has a higher average time in grade. This means that on average, they stay longer within the same pay grade than females,” the company stated.

Male staff stay on the same job grade for an average of 4.5 years compared to 3.2 years for females.
