The Gender Pay Gap at Graham’s the Family Dairy
We collected our data on 5th April 2023. The figures show that Graham’s the Family Dairy has a mean gender pay gap of 11% and a median gender pay gap of 10.25%.
| Expressed as a percentage | |
| Mean Gender pay gap in hourly pay | 11% |
|
Median Gender pay gap in hourly pay |
10.25% |
The gender pay gap is the difference between the hourly rate of pay of male employees and female employees, expressed as a percentage of the hourly pay rate of the male employees. The gender pay gap is reported on both a mean (average) and median (mid-point on a distribution) basis.
Gender Bonus
6% of females and 70% of males received bonus.
The mean bonus gender pay gap is 64% and the median bonus gender pay gap is a 35%.
The gender bonus is higher for our male employees due to our core workforce being made up of male drivers. The simple reason for this is that fewer women apply for these roles during our recruitment processes. When they do, they are treated equally and paid the same as men.
Taking Action
We are prioritising the following areas for action: building gender pay gap analysis into our management processes and continuing to actively promote gender balance within the Organisation.
We will explore how we can continue to attract women into our organisation to create an even gender balance. As an equal opportunities employer, we firmly believe in appointing the best candidates into the role, regardless of their gender or other factors covered by the Equality Act.
Declaration
I confirm that our data has been calculated accordingly to the requirements of the Equality Act 2010 (Gender Pay Gap Information) Regulations 2017.

To date, we have reviewed our current practices and procedures relating to supply chain due diligence and associated risk management in order to understand how we can best develop in this area.
Section 54 of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 (“MSA”) places a legal requirement on large businesses such as Graham’s Dairies Limited to publish an annual statement of the steps that the organisation has taken during the previous financial year to ensure that modern slavery (including human trafficking) is not taking place in its business or supply chain. This statement is made pursuant to the MSA for the financial year ending 5 April 2023.

We operate three manufacturing sites in the United Kingdom.

RISK MONITORING & COMPLIANCE
As part of our initiative to identify and address risks of slavery in our supply chain we:

- Carry out an annual risk rating of all our suppliers by re-running the assessments described immediately above.
- Only engage workers from reputable employment agencies and always obtain evidence verifying their right to work in the United Kingdom before accepting a worker.
- Encourage openness and support anyone who raises genuine concern in good faith relating to slavery or human trafficking. We are committed to ensuring that no one suffers any detrimental treatment as a result of reporting in good faith their suspicion that slavery of whatever form is or may be taking place in any part of our own business or in any of our supply chains.
- Annual SEDEX Audits (SMETA) with results being published on the SEDEX system to all suppliers and customers.
NEXT STEPS
Following a review of the effectiveness of the steps we have taken to date to ensure that there is no slavery or human trafficking in our business or supply chains, we intend to take the following further steps to combat slavery and human trafficking:
