Measure the pay gap from your own payroll records 40s

Are we paying people fairly? Most companies guess. Start with the shape of the payroll. Total, average, median — and the gap. Median matters: one big salary can't drag it. Per department, average against median. Now measure it properly. Men and women, per department, in dirhams. Two departments are level. One isn't. Then the same question by nationality group. And by tenure: what people earn against what their service implies. With a ranked list of what to fix first. Measured from your own records. Nothing bought in.

Why does the median matter more than the average?
Because one big salary cannot drag the median. The page starts with total, average, median and the gap, then shows average against median per department.
Which comparisons does it make?
Men and women per department in your own currency, then by nationality group, then by tenure — what people earn against what their service implies — with a ranked list of what to fix first.
Is any external salary data used?
No — it is measured from your own records, with nothing bought in.
