I realise this is a little niche, but in case it is of use to someone out there. Since 2022 Irish companies with over 250 employees have had to publish a gender pay gap report (legislation very similar to that in the UK). However the govt. here haven’t standardised the format or provided the central portal they promised (again like they have in the UK). This makes the data itself difficult to gather and compare.<\/p>\n
So I decided to fill that niche with paygap.ie<\/a>. This site gathers as much available data as I could find for 2022 and 2023 reports. There are searchable tables for each year, and the dataset can be downloaded per year or as a combined csv. I’ve also linked to github where I maintain regular updates to the dataset in case that’s anyone’s preferred jam. So hopefully it’s an as accessible and reusable a dataset as possible for anyone looking to explore this kind of data and include Ireland statistics in it.<\/p>\n Every single piece of data has been gathered by hand, by me, because there is absolutely no standard format so there’s no useful way to write a scraper or processor. But hopefully I’ve walked so others can run, since now the data is available in several usable formats.<\/p>\n Hopefully someone here finds this interesting!<\/p>\n Disclaimer: I’ve labelled this as self-promotion per the rules, because I made this website, but I really just want the data to be accessible to all. It’s under an open license, free of charge, there’s no advertising on the site. I get nothing from this other than the joy of solving a problem, and I legitimately wish our govt. would get their shit together with a central portal and make all my hard work redundant.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n submitted by \/u\/zenbuffy <\/a>
