Sex
Key findings
- 69% of our employees identify as female
- 31% of our employees identify as male
| Year | Female (percentage) | Male (percentage) |
|---|---|---|
| 2019/20 | 68% | 32% |
| 2020/21 | 68% | 32% |
| 2021/22 | 68% | 32% |
| 2022/23 | 69% | 31% |
| Southend Census data (2021) | 51.3% | 48.7% |
These findings allow us to clarify the sex of our workforce. They showcase:
- the higher proportion of female employees compared to male
- that this proportion has remained similar since 2019/20
- that the proportion of female to male members of staff is not representative of the Southend population
