As our first year submitting a Gender Equality Report to the Workplace Gender Equality Agency, we were eager to understand how our organisation compared to the industry in relation to the Gender Pay Gap and Workforce Composition and use this opportunity to develop or improve our existing strategies to better support equality in our workplace. 

Following the reporting, we conducted our own further internal gender pay gap analysis, which provided us with the following additional insight:
•	We have a higher percentage, approximately 65%, of our lower paid roles occupied by females.
•	For the remaining percentage, our female demographic has a higher average pay rate or equal pay in comparison to our male demographic.
•	Overall, our headcount balance remains consistent with recent years at 40% representation from the female demographic.

This information will be valuable as begin our salary benchmarking process and companywide salary reviews in preparation for FY26.

The HAMBS Board and Executive Management Team have committed to the following action plan to address gender equality in our organisation:
•	Development of a Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Strategy and Program, to ensure employees are consulted and have input on issues concerning gender equality in the workplace.
•	Continued internal analysis of our payroll to determine to review and any remuneration gaps between women and men. 
•	Updated Equal Opportunity Policy and Talent Acquisition framework to ensure fairness and consistency.
