It also captures the mean and median difference between bonuses paid to men and women at Care UK in the year up to 5 April 2022, i.e. for the 2021 performance year.

Pay quartersThe above image illustrates the gender distribution at Care UK across 4 equally sized quarters, each containing 3,148 colleagues.
We are investing in a programme of development opportunities available to all of our colleagues including leadership and professional qualifications to support gender balance and diversity as and when great opportunities arise.
We are embedding a thorough and objective approach to succession and talent planning, identifying future opportunities and putting in place actions and programmes to ensure a level playing field and gender balance when promotions become available.
We support requests for flexible working and have a good mix of full time and part time colleagues.
We regularly listen to our colleagues through a feedback forum with representatives from all of our homes, finding out what is important to them and engaging them in this topic.
We have well embedded development programmes, creating a talent pipeline for team leader and management roles where women are traditionally overly represented. This has resulted in over half our home manager roles filled through internal promotions.
I confirm the data reported is accurate.
