ECU celebrates its progress on gender equity pay
The WGEA has published gender pay gap results for 10,500 Australian employers, with analysis of the data revealing more employer gender pay gaps are smaller today than they were a year ago.
WGEA's analysis shows half of employers have an average total remuneration gender pay gap smaller than 11.2 per cent.
"We are incredibly proud to see ECU leading Western Australia's universities with the lowest gender pay gap," ECU Athena Swan Lead, Professor Marnie Campbell said.
"This result reflects our sustained commitment to equity and inclusion through the Athena Swan accreditation framework, which is built on ten key principles designed to create a genuinely gender-inclusive workplace.
"At ECU, gender equity is not a one-off initiative, it is embedded in our policies, leadership accountability and everyday practices. Closing the gender pay gap requires intentional action, transparency and cultural change, and these results show that our approach is making a meaningful difference for our staff and our broader community."
The WGEA data has revealed that ECU's median total remuneration gender pay gap is 4.9 per cent, also the lowest of all other Western Australian Universities.
