Gender pay equity

Our gender pay equity analysis represents the difference between how women and men are paid relative to what the market pays for comparable roles (market reference). The total fixed remuneration (base salary + superannuation) for each employee was compared to the market reference for their respective position, to determine relativity of actual pay as a percentage difference to the market reference (compa-ratio). Compa-ratios are averaged for male and female employees and compared to determine the gender pay equity percentage. A positive number indicates that women are paid higher than men relative to the market reference and vice versa. 

Our gender pay equity calculation is based on permanent and fixed-term employees of the Medibank Group as at 30 June 2025, where a relevant market reference for the role of the employee was available. 96% of positions held by employees were able to be benchmarked against the market reference. The data excludes non-executive directors, casual employees and employees who have not responded with a defined gender. During FY25, the gap for both employee groups was –1.0%, which is within our level of tolerance of plus or minus 1.0%.
