The Nursing and Midwifery Board of Ireland (NMBI) has published its report outlining gender pay figures for 2025. The NMBI Gender Pay Gap Report 2025 demonstrates that approximately 76 per cent of NMBI employees are women and 24 per cent are men – consistent with the profession’s long-standing female dominance.
It shows a minimal gender pay gap, whereby the mean hourly gender pay gap was 1 per cent and the median hourly gender pay gap was 5 per cent.
The report emphasises that the gender pay gap does not indicate an illegal, unequal pay for equal work, but instead reflects the distribution of roles, grades, and seniority within the organisation.
The NMBI also reaffirms its commitment to ensuring that it “promote fairness, transparency, and inclusion by continuing to monitor pay outcomes and reviewing recruitment and progression practices to support equity”.
“It [the report] provides a clear picture of our current position and supports our ongoing work to strengthen equality, foster balanced opportunities, and ensure that our resourcing and organisational practices continue to evolve in line with best practice.”
The full report is available on the NMBI website.
