5.—(1) In this Schedule, “pay period”, in relation to a relevant employee, means—
(a)the period in respect of which the relevant public authority pays the employee basic pay, whether weekly, fortnightly, monthly or any other period, or
(b)if the relevant public authority does not pay the employee basic pay, the period in respect of which the public authority most frequently pays the employee one of the elements of ordinary pay mentioned in paragraph 3(1)(b) to (e).
(2) In this Schedule, the “relevant pay period” means the pay period within which the snapshot date falls.
6.—(1) The “hourly rate of pay” in relation to a relevant employee, is to be determined as follows—
Step 1
Identify all amounts of ordinary pay and bonus pay paid to the employee during the relevant pay period.
Step 2
Where an amount identified under Step 1 is an amount of ordinary pay, exclude any amount that would normally fall to be paid in a different pay period.
Step 3
Where an amount identified under Step 1 is an amount of bonus pay, and is paid in respect of a period (“the bonus period”) which is not the same length as the relevant pay period, divide the amount by the length of the bonus period (in days) and multiply it by the length of the relevant pay period (in days).
Step 4
Add together the amounts identified under Step 1 (as adjusted, where necessary, under Steps 2 and 3).
Step 5
Multiply the amount found under Step 4 by the appropriate multiplier (see sub-paragraphs (2) and (3)).
Step 6
Divide the amount found under Step 5 by the number of working hours in a week for that employee (see paragraph 7).
(2) In this paragraph, “the appropriate multiplier” means 7 divided by the number of days in the relevant pay period.
(3) In determining for the purposes of this paragraph the number of days in the relevant pay period or bonus period where those periods are (or are determined by reference to) a month or a year—
(a)a month is treated as having 30.44 days;
(b)a year is treated as having 365.25 days.
7.—(1) The number of working hours in a week for a relevant employee, for the purposes of Step 6 in paragraph 6, is to be determined as follows.
(2) Subject to sub-paragraph (6), where an employee has normal working hours that do not differ from week to week or over a longer period, the number of working hours in a week for a relevant employee is the number of the normal working hours in a week for that employee under the employee's contract of employment, or terms of employment, in force on the snapshot date.
(3) Subject to sub-paragraph (6), where the employee has no normal working hours, or the number of the normal working hours differs from week to week or over a longer period, the number of working hours in a week for the employee is—
(a)the average number of working hours calculated by dividing by twelve the total number of the employee's working hours during the period of twelve weeks ending with the last complete week of the relevant pay period, or
(b)where the employee has not been at work for a sufficient period, or for some other reason the public authority is not reasonably able to make the calculation under paragraph (a), a number which fairly represents the number of working hours in a week having regard to such of the considerations specified in sub-paragraph (5) as are appropriate in the circumstances.
(4) In calculating the average number of working hours for the purposes of sub-paragraph (3)(a), no account is to be taken of a week in which no hours were worked by the employee, and hours worked in earlier weeks must be brought in so as to bring up to twelve the number of weeks of which account is taken.
(5) The considerations referred to in sub-paragraph (3)(b) are—
(a)the average number of working hours in a week which the employee could expect under the employee's contract of employment, or terms of employment; and
(b)the average number of working hours of other employees engaged in comparable employment with the same public authority.
(6) Where the employee is paid on the basis of piecework, the number of working hours in a week for the employee is the number of hours of output work for that employee in the week during the relevant pay period within which the snapshot date falls, determined in accordance with Chapter 4 of Part 5 of the National Minimum Wage Regulations 2015 M5.
(7) In its application by virtue of sub-paragraph (6), Chapter 4 of Part 5 of the National Minimum Wage Regulations 2015 has effect as if—
(a)references to a worker were references to an employee, and
(b)references to a pay reference period were references to a week.
(8) In this paragraph, “working hours”—
(a)includes hours when an employee is available, and required to be available, at or near a place of work for the purposes of working unless the employee is at home, and
(b)excludes any hours for which an employee is entitled to overtime pay.
(9) In sub-paragraph (8), hours when an employee is “available” only includes hours when the employee is awake for the purposes of working, even if an employee by arrangement sleeps at or near a place of work and the employer provides suitable facilities for sleeping.

13.—(1) The proportions of male and female full-pay relevant employees in the lower, lower middle, upper middle and upper quartile pay bands is to be determined as follows.

Determine the hourly rate of pay for each full-pay relevant employee and then rank those employees in order from lowest paid to highest paid.
Step 2
Divide the employees, as ranked under Step 1, into four sections, each comprising (so far as possible) an equal number of employees, to determine the lower, lower middle, upper middle and upper quartile pay bands.
Step 3
The proportion of male full-pay relevant employees within each quartile pay band must be expressed as a percentage of the full-pay relevant employees within that band as follows—
where—
A is the number of male full-pay relevant employees in a quartile pay band; and
B is the number of full-pay relevant employees in that quartile pay band.
Step 4
The proportion of female full-pay relevant employees within each quartile pay band must be expressed as a percentage of the full-pay relevant employees within that band as follows—
where—
A is the number of female full-pay relevant employees in a quartile pay band; and
B is the number of full-pay relevant employees in that quartile pay band.
(2) Where employees receiving the same hourly rate of pay fall within more than one quartile pay band, the public authority must (so far as possible) ensure that, when ranking the employees under Step 1, the relative proportion of male and female employees receiving that rate of pay is the same in each of those pay bands.
14.—(1) The requirement in paragraph 2(1) to publish information is a requirement that that information be published on the public authority's website—
(a)in a manner that is accessible to all its employees and to the public; and
(b)for a period of at least three years beginning with the date of publication.
