Abstract

This research uses ASHE data to compare the gender pay gap in the public and private sectors in the UK. This research was commissioned from Cardiff Business School under OME’s 2018 Open Call procurement exercise. It uses ASHE data to look at the size and possible causes of the gender pay gap in the public and private sectors, with a focus on pay review body occupations. It finds that, once personal characteristics are controlled for, the gender pay gap is larger in the public sector. It also finds a much higher pay gap at the top end of the earnings distribution.
