UCD Gender Pay Gap Report 2024

UCD is proud to share the third edition of our Gender Pay Gap Report 2024, a comprehensive analysis designed to better understand, and address pay disparities between male and female employees at the university, in line with legislative requirements.

This year’s report shows a continued narrowing of the gap, with the mean gender pay gap now at 7.43% and the median at 7.14% for all UCD employees (excluding hourly paid workers). The report provides detailed analysis both including and excluding hourly paid workers, as their inclusion can lead to data fluctuations and may not fully reflect the overall gender pay gap within the university.

UCD remains firmly committed to implementing and monitoring actions to further reduce the gap between men’s and women’s pay. By examining trends, comparing results to previous years, and identifying key areas for improvement, we continue to gain valuable insights into our progress and focus efforts where they are most needed.

The report also explores the factors contributing to UCD’s gender pay gap and highlights initiatives undertaken to promote equity and foster a fair, inclusive workplace culture for all. While we are encouraged by the progress made in recent years, we recognise that achieving gender equality and closing the gender pay gap requires sustained effort and continued focus.
