Your gender pay gap data files explained
Description

Create your Gender Pay Gap data file

You can use the Gender Pay Gap Wizard to create Gender Pay Gap reporting files. Once created, upload the values from these files to Revenue’s Gender Pay Gap reporting portal. After you create the files, enter the values directly on Revenue’s Gender Pay Gap reporting portal.

 TIP: If your report spans more than one tax year, Sage 50 Payroll Ireland combines each employee’s data into one summary row per PPS number. 

Each CSV file contains one record for every employee in your chosen date range and includes the following details.


Static information

These columns show:

  • Employee Code
  • First Name
  • Surname
  • PPSN
  • Gender
  • Employment Type
  • Pay Type

 NOTE: If any field in an employee record is blank, that field exports as blank in the CSV file. 


Payments and total amounts

Each selected payment type appears as its own column, for example, Basic, Standard, Overtime. The column header uses the payment name.

Payments appear in order of increasing Payment ID, with 2025 payments taking priority when names or IDs don’t match.


Hours worked and contracted hours

If an employee’s Pay Type is Salary and Contracted Hours is greater than zero, the following columns appear:

  • Total number of hours worked
  • Total number of contracted hours

Example output

Employee Code First name Surname Gender Employment Type Pay Type Basic Standard Holidays Total Pay Total hrs worked Contracted hrs
0001 Employee One Male Permanent Salary 0.00 1,960.00 1,607.80 90,455.32    
0003 Employee Two Female Permanent Salary 0.00 3,124.56 101.35 200,712.52    
0004 Employee Three Female Permanent Salary 0.00 7,365.00 460.82 99,124.75    

Leavers and excluded employees

Sage 50 Payroll Ireland leaves out anyone who finishes during the snapshot period. For example, if your snapshot runs from 5 May 2025 to 4 June 2025, employees who leave in that time won’t appear in the report.
