| Abstract: | This paper investigates a modern, former polytechnic granted the status of university in 1992, to illustrate state gender pay gap in the UK. This article suggests that it is too simplistic to talk of the state pay gap as it does not take into account variations in the size of the pay gap in different job grades. This study investigates satisfaction levels with pay for two groups of staff, administrative and academic and shows how satisfaction with pay, promotion and conditions also varies between the grades. The study suggests that there is a link between the size of the pay gap, staff grade, occupational gender segregation and expressing dissatisfaction. |
