  4. Median bonus pay
  5. Proportion of males/females in hourly rate of pay quartiles (four bands)
  6. Proportion of males/females in receipt of bonuses in the last 12 months before the snapshot date

The median represents the middle value within the data set. The mean represents the average value within the data set.

The bonus period for the purposes of the bonus calculations range from 01 April 2018 to 05 April 2019.
