UK Gender Pay Reporting
Cummins in the UK 2025 Gender Pay Report
Cummins in the UK is required by the UK Equality Act 2010 (Gender Pay Gap Information) Regulations 2017 to publish statutory calculations every year showing certain gender pay gap data between our male and female employees.
It is important to note that the gender pay gap is different to equal pay, which is about pay of men and women for equal work. An organization can have equal pay, and still have a gender pay gap. The mean gender pay gap is the difference in the average hourly pay for all women compared to all men. The median identifies the middle point of a population. The median pay gap is the gap between the hourly pay rate for a female at the mid-point, compared to the pay rate of a male at the mid-point.
The mean pay for men within Cummins Ltd. is 2.8% higher than that of women. The median pay for men is 5.4% higher than that of women. The Cummins Ltd. gender pay gap remains low in the context of the 2025 national Manufacturing Sector average figures of 8.1% mean and 14.8% median.

Commentary
- The gender bonus gap between males and females has decreased since 2024. The median bonus gap has decreased from 4.4% in 2024 to 3.5% in 2025 and the mean bonus gap has narrowed from -2.6% in 2024 to 0.8% in 2025. The mean and median bonus gap are both now ‘lower’ by being closer to zero.
- By dividing the workforce into four equal-sized groups based upon hourly pay rates, the
quartiles represent the pay rates from the lowest to the highest hourly rates, with the
percentage of males and females in each quartile. As with previous years, female
employees continue to be reasonably well represented in the four pay quartiles for
Cummins Limited. Cummins Limited overall male / female split is 77.6% / 22.4% with a
female representation in quartile 4 of 21.6%, an increase on 2024.

- Our Total Rewards continues to advance the support for the most equitable pay structure through software implementations, such as a tool called "Syndio" which increases our internal capability to identify, and address pay inequities on an ongoing basis but also to strengthen our pay-offer capabilities for both new hires and promotions to further improve consistency to pay changes going forward. We are also developing new policies on Promotion, which will provide more guidelines for suitable range placements and progression relating to promotions and lateral moves.
