The Higgins Group is an equal Opportunities employer and strives to pay employees equally for the same, or equivalent, work.

Although there is no legislative requirement, Higgins Group PLC has calculated its ethnicity pay gap report for the year preceding April 2023. The format of the Gender Pay Gap has been mirrored for ease of comparison and to establish a benchmark for the Company to monitor.
