Iarnród Éireann Gender Pay Gap data shows 6.3% hourly gap in favour of women
In the report, the company highlights increased representation of women across all roles in the organisation as a key target, and acknowledges that as representation in operational roles across Train Operations and Infrastructure Management increases, the gender pay gap is likely to narrow in the years ahead.
Quartile reporting under the act shows lower representation of women in the lower and lower middle quartiles, and higher in the upper middle and upper quartiles. The talent management team has created a number of internal programmes that are female targeted and focus on career development. The Women in Leadership Programme, and the Women in Rail Network combine in-class learning and career development workshops to empower women and create a supportive network of likeminded peers.
The company says it has undertaken a range of initiatives to engage at second level with girls considering career choices. This includes the Try a Trade Programme, which encourages girls and mixed schools to visit Inchicore Works’ apprentice workshops and"try a trade," in many cases for the first time.
