8.2.7 Tracking pay scale for gender equity

Gender Pay Equity

Srinakharinwirot University recognises the importance of gender pay scale for equity. It collects and analyses staff pay data by gender, job category and position level to assess pay differences between women and men performing similar work. The 2025 results are as follows:

Academic Personnel

The table shows that, overall, the average pay of female academic staff is slightly higher than that of male academic staff. The average monthly pay is THB 47,684.44 for men and THB 48,559.91 for women, a gender pay gap of -1.84%.

Operational Personnel

The table shows that, overall, the average pay of female support staff is higher than that of male support staff. The average pay is THB 29,133.96 for men and THB 30,397.01 for women, a gender pay gap of -4.34%.

The data show relatively large gender differences in average pay for some positions, such as Researchers and Professional Level. These differences may reflect several factors, including length of service, as staff with longer service tend to earn higher salaries, and the number of post holders. For positions held by only a few people, particularly senior or specialised positions, the average can be strongly affected by a small number of individuals, making the gender pay gap for that position appear larger than it actually is.

The University recognises the importance of gender equality. This commitment is put into practice through its Policy on Equality, Equity, and Fairness in Human Resource Management (Employment policy on discrimination), which provides a standard framework for fair and transparent personnel management and promotes equal treatment of all staff. Employees performing similar roles at equivalent levels receive comparable pay regardless of gender, confirming that differences are merit-based rather than discriminatory.
