Gender Pay Gap Report reveals Cardiff Airport is ahead of the curve
Welsh pubs rally together to raise money for charity
The fi rst Gender Pay Gap report
published has revealed positive fi ndings in the diff erence between the average pay for men and women working at Cardiff Airport. Last year was the fi rst time all companies of 250 employees or more in the UK were required to publish their gender pay gap data. As such, with 2018 being the fi rst year Cardiff Airport has exceeded 250 directly employed members of staff , this was the fi rst report published. It reveals that: • 64% of employees are male and 36% are female, which - according to ONS data - is much more balanced than the Transportation and Storage industry average of 80% male and 20% female
• Cardiff Airport’s Mean Gender Pay Gap of 2% is signifi cantly less than the Aviation Sector average which stands at 34%
• Cardiff Airport’s Mean Gender Pay Gap of 2% also diff ers greatly to the UK average of 17%; Wales’ average of 12% and the Industry (Transportation and Storage) average 3%
• Companies in the same sector who fi led Gender Pay Gap reports last year had an average pay gap of 29%
In addition to the fi ndings in this report, Cardiff Airport brought forward its commitment to ensuring no employee is paid less than the Real Living Wage, which was planned to come into eff ect in April 2020 but came into eff ect on 1st April 2019.
Vegan Fest coming to Merthyr
A group of operators from the Craft Union Pub Company have raised £3,000 for two Down Syndrome charities by co-ordinating multiple climbs of Pen Y Fan – the largest peak in South Wales – over one day. In total, a group of six people successfully managed to scale and descend all 886m of Pen y Fan three times over one day. A second group of 12 people (and a dog) managed to navigate the challenging climb twice. The money raised has been donated to Down Syndrome International and
Ups and Downs
Charity, both of which provide support and communities for parents to share information and
advice with each other. The event was organised by Craft Union team members from across a number of Welsh pubs, including: the Baruc Arms, Barry; Sarah Siddons, Brecon; Caerphilly Cwtch, Caerphilly; Olde Cross Keys, Swansea; and The Mill, Swansea. Shelly Cottle, operator at the Sarah Siddons, said: “Being an operator is much more than just a job, it’s a way of life. Part of that commitment
is
an unwritten rule to give back to the communities you serve and help causes close to your heart or those of your regulars. “It was a fantastic day to get out and battle the conditions in aid of

these two phenomenal charities. The support of all our regulars in helping raise
the money has
been out of this world, so a massive thank you to all of those who chipped in, as well as those who cheered us on over the day. It just goes to show the thriving community spirit that exists in South Wales.” The Craft Union Pub Company rejuvenates pubs in the heart of communities
by
reinvigorating them with investment, whilst off ering great quality, aff ordable drinks, served by people who care.
