In March 2020 the coronavirus pandemic started to affect businesses across the country and like so many others, Q-Park sought to make use of the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme which led to the Company furloughing several members of staff. The Company topped up the Head Office employees who were furloughed to pay 100% of their wages and therefore these employees were still counted as full pay relevant employees. The frontline employees on furlough who received the government funded 80% of their usual wage, were not counted towards these calculations. These employees were typically on the lower hourly rates and as they have been taken out of the calculations, this has led to a noticeable increase in the mean hourly rate of both males and females compared to previous years. As mentioned above, we had 197 employees counted as full pay relevant employees for the hourly rate calculations as opposed to over 300 we have had in previous years which has also impacted on the figures as shown above.
With the majority of the females in the Company working in Head Office functions or Management roles, this has seen a higher mean and median hourly rate for females than males thus leading to a negative percentage difference. This is similar for the bonus calculations also.
