An open repository for data on the Irish gender pay gap, as reported by companies. As a result of the Gender Pay Gap Information Act, from 2022 companies with more than 250 employees we required to create and publish a report outlining their gender pay gap. While plans are in place to create a central portal (similar to that in the UK) to collate this information, such a database does not exist yet, and the government has no concrete release date available.
You can view this dataset in a searchable, linked format (graphs and enhanced data coming soon) at https://paygap.ie/ - my aim is to keep these datasets in sync, so that all users can browse the data easily via a web interface, and anyone who wishes to code using the data has a readymade dataset available.
- Check if the company exists in companies.csv
- Note the company ID and format of the name in the file.
- Submit a pull request adding your data into gpg.csv, making sure to increment the "id" field so you have a unique record
If the company doesn't exist in the companies.csv file, please include the new entry to companies.csv in your pull request.
There is a web form to make new contributions to the dataset available at https://paygap.ie/newReport

Though not mandatory, I'd appreciate a shoutout if you use the data somewhere, and I'd love to see what you're doing with it!
