Executive Summary
Key achievements
- Both the overall representation, and the Equity Index, for women employed at the University of Western Australia has continued to increase in a positive gender equity direction. For example, women now comprise almost 40% of all academic staff, up from a mere quarter in 2000. The Equity Index for Professional staff women (around the early 80s) has steadily increased over the past five years.
- The percentage of academic (teaching and research) staff increased since the last reporting period when a downward trend was observed (up from 33% in 2006 to 36.4% in the current reporting period). Women now comprise almost 41% and a quarter of academic staff in the important Senior Lecturer and Associate Professor ‘feeder’ categories respectively.
- There has been a significant increase (44.3% in 2008, up from 35% in the previous reporting period) in the representation of women in the most senior category (HEW 10 and above) of professional staff. Similarly, in the professional staff category, women now exceed men from Level 6 through to Level 9; e.g. women comprise almost 60% of staff at HEW 8. This trend needs to be monitored and attraction strategies for men at lower level entry considered.
- Women comprised 60% of academic staff promoted from ‘Associate Lecturer’ to ‘Lecturer’, and exactly half of academic staff promoted from ‘Lecturer’ to ‘Senior Lecturer’.
- After a spike at 44% in 2006, the percentage of academic women gaining promotion has settled back to 39%, offering a smaller rise, but one that is consistent with earlier reporting periods.
- Overall application success rates for female academics remain similar to, or higher than, those for male academics.
- Women were well represented (60%, up from 57% in the previous reporting period) among School Managers and it is encouraging to note that this upward trend has also remained consistent since the academic restructure in 2002.
- It is encouraging to note increased participation from women at all levels in the UWA Staff Development Grants Scheme.
- There has been, for the first time, gender parity among academic staff accessing training provided by Organisational and Staff Developmental Services.
Areas of concern/gaps
- Despite reasonable gender parity in promotion through the lower levels of the academic ranks, there has been a decrease in the percentage of women achieving successful promotion at the higher levels (25% in this reporting period, compared to 36% in 2006 and 28% in 2005).
- Women comprise 34.8% of staff in receipt of discretionary allowances at UWA representing a decrease (44% in the previous reporting period) in their participation in this important employment rewards scheme. Women were particularly under-represented in the receipt of Market Allowance, Fixed, No Super (13.4%) and Distinction Allowance, Fixed, No Super (8.3%).
- The consistent trend of poor representation of women (16%) in the ‘Heads of School’ category continues. This represents a significant concern as it is a possible feeder category for more senior levels of academic leadership, including positions such as Dean, and Pro Vice-Chancellor.
- Only 18% of internal secondments in the academic stream were accessed by women. Senior male academic staff at Levels D and E account for more than three quarters of secondments in the academic stream.
- An overview of the Management Tier profile at UWA (Table 18) indicates the most significant lack of female representation occurs at Tier 4; i.e. the level of the Directors, etc. who report to members of the Executive. This trend has remained constant for many years and is particularly marked in the portfolios of the Executive Director, Finance and Resources (one woman, which is a recent appointment) and Executive Director, Academic Services (one woman).

Table 1. Female Staff as % of Total Staff by Function, 2003-2008
It is significant to note that the trend whereby the percentage of women (54.6%) employed at UWA has continued to exceed men, continues. Longitudinal analysis reveals that there continues to be a significant increase in the number of female research intensive professional staff; up from 66.7% in 2003 to 74.1% in the current reporting period. The number of female academic staff also shows a similar trend, up from 35% in 2003 to 39% in 2008. Overall, the data reveals steady performance across all categories, generally trending positively for women.

Table 2. Academic staff by Level and Gender, 2003-2008
In contrast to the slight downward trend observed in the last reporting period, the percentage of women academic teaching staff increased in this reporting period (up from 33.3% in 2007 to 36.4% in 2008). It is encouraging to note that, longitudinally, there have been noteworthy trends:
women now comprise almost 41% and a quarter of academic staff in the important Senior Lecturer and Associate Professor ‘feeder’ categories respectively; and,
women now comprise almost half (47.4%) of academic staff in the Associate Lecturer category.
The gender equity performance at the most senior academic level, Professor, continues to display limited movement (up to a mere 15.6% in 2008 from 12.6% in 2003) despite positive intervention over the past decade. Similarly, the performance of women in the Research Intensive academic category has been trending downwards over the same longitudinal period; i.e. down from 48.4% in 2003 to 43.7% in the current reporting period.

Table 3. Professional staff by Level and Gender, 2003-2008
The overall percentage of female professional staff has continued to increase since 2003, despite a small decrease in this reporting period; down from 66.2% in 2007 to 65.7%. Representation at mid- and senior women staff levels continues to show an increasing trend, with the percentage of women now exceeding men from Level 6 through to Level 9. It is particularly pleasing to note that women comprise 60% of staff at Level 8. There has also been a significant increase in the representation of women in the most senior category (HEW 10 and above) with women now representing 44.3% of staff, up significantly from 35.1% in the previous reporting period.
The Equity Index for women continues to trend steadily upwards, with a longitudinal perspective showing a significant shift from 72 in 2002 to 85 in the current period. It is encouraging to note that the EI scores for both men and women continue to trend towards 100, a score that indicates no compression into lower salary ranks despite very uneven representation of male and female staff.

New Appointments for Academic Women, 2008
Women have performed strongly in the two mid-categories of Lecturer and Senior Lecturer (61.2% and 52.5% of all new appointments) and moderately well in the Associate Professor category (27.3%) in the current reporting period. However, it is disappointing to note that this trend is not reflected in the Professoriate which, at 18.2%, is significantly down from 60% in the previous reporting period.
Separations for Academic Women, 2008
It is very encouraging to note that, for the first time, the retention rate for women across all spheres and tiers of academic employment was higher than that for men.

Table 5. New Appointments and Separations for Female Professional Staff by Function and Classification, 2008
New Appointments for Professional Staff Women, 2008
The data in this category is encouraging with women comprising the majority of new professional staff appointments at most levels. However, while the picture in previous years at the most senior levels represent ‘progress’ contradictions, women represented more than 50% (e.g. 54.2% of new appointments at HEW 9) of all appointments at all senior levels except HEW 8 where they represented almost half (45.8%) of all new appointments. The increased representation of women in the research intensive category through all the levels is positive and this trend has been consistent over the previous four reporting periods.
Separations for professional Staff Women, 2008
While it is not surprising that the separation data revealed that greater numbers of professional staff women left the University, it is pleasing to note that this trend was reversed at the highest levels: i.e. women comprised only a fifth of separations at HEW 10 and above (20%). However, the trend observed in the current data set whereby almost two-thirds of ‘separating’ staff at levels 6-9 (e.g. 63.6% and 66.7% of staff at HEW 8 and 9 respectively) are women is worth monitoring.

Table 6. Staff by Function, Employment Type and Status According to Gender, 2008
In the current reporting period, 27.5% of all staff were part-time and, of these, 74.9% were women. Women working in a part-time capacity currently comprise 17.7% of all staff at UWA. Only 24.5% of academic staff were part-time and women now comprise more than half of all part-time academic staff (53.9 %).
The majority (94.2%) of research-intensive (academic and professional) staff continue to be on a fixed term contract. Women comprise slightly more than half (51.4%) of all fixed-term research-intensive staff (academic and professional). 26.2% of all academic staff are women are on a fixed-term contract. More than two-thirds (71.59%) of professional fixed-term research staff were women. 19.8% of fixed-term professional staff were women.

Table 7a. Professional Staff by Appointment Term According to Gender, 2008
In the current reporting period, 71.4% of professional staff had ongoing appointments, while 17% of research intensive staff held ongoing appointments. Of all professional staff (excluding research intensive) with ongoing appointments, 62.8% were women. Of all female staff (again excluding research intensive), 62.8% had ongoing appointments compared to 71.4% of all male ongoing appointments.
Of the staff (excluding research intensive), 27.8% of the total number of women had appointment terms of two year or less. This represents a significant increase (almost 10%, up from 19.8%) from the previous reporting period.
In the research intensive staff data set, 74% of staff were female, the majority of whom were employed on a contract of two years or less. 70% and 73.8% of all male and female staff respectively were employed on a contract of one year or less. 14.5% of female research intensive staff were employed on a contract of two years or less.
Table 7b. Academic staff by Appointment Term According to Gender, 2008
Teaching and Research
In 2007, 60.5% of all teaching and research staff were tenured. Men comprised 42% of all tenured academic teaching staff compared with 28.5% of female academic teaching staff in this category.
Women comprised 12.5% of all academic teaching staff on a contract of 2 years or less. Women comprised almost half (46.1%) of non-tenured academic teaching staff employed on a contract of 3 years or less.
Research Intensive
Tenure was held by a mere 6.6% of academic research staff during the current reporting period. Women comprised 43.6% of all (i.e both tenured and non-tenured) academic research staff and a little more than a quarter (27.9%) of tenured staff in this category. 44% of staff held a contract of 1 year or less, and of these, 51.2% were women. In 2008, of the 48.9% academic research staff in the ‘>1 year but <4 year’ category, 41.3% were women.

Table 8. Academic staff by Function and Age According to Gender, 2008
Overall, the age profile of female academic staff continues to be younger than the profile of male academic staff. Slightly more than half (50.2%) of all teaching and research staff are between the ages of 40 and 54. Only 16.8% of all female teaching and research staff were in the 55 plus age group compared to 30% of their male counterparts. It is encouraging to note that almost a third (31%) of women teaching and research staff were in the under-35 age bracket, compared with 10.7% of male teaching and research staff in this category. Women teaching and research staff exceeded men (53%) in the 25-29 age cohort. Women under 40 comprised 24% of all research intensive staff and 42.9% of staff in the under 40 category within the research intensive cohort were women.

Table 9. Professional staff by Function, Age and Gender, 2008
Women in the 40-54 year age bracket comprise 24.9% of all staff and 38.6% of all female staff. Women staff in the 55+ age cohort comprise 13.5% of all staff. There is a relatively low proportion of women staff (10.8%) and male staff (5%) under 30 years of age and this figure has marginally increased since the previous reporting period. It is interesting to note that women comprise a much higher percentage of staff in the 65+ cohort among professional staff (43.4%), as opposed to academic staff (11.9%).

Table 10a. & 10b. Discretionary Allowance by Classification and Gender, 2007
The gender equity picture in this area remains in favour of men. Women staff fare better in the receipt of a few discretionary allowances and worse in the receipt of many others. It is important to interpret this data in the light of the fact that they are driven, in some instances, by very specific labour market conditions that may exist in certain areas of the University; e.g. loadings for academic clinicians in the Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry.
Women comprise 38.4% of staff in receipt of discretionary allowances at UWA representing a decrease (44% in the previous reporting period) in their participation in this important employment rewards scheme. A trend of positive gender equity in favour of women was observed in the receipt of Salary Progression (63.9%) and Additional Responsibilities Allowance, no super (70%).
However, women continued to be significantly under-represented in the receipt of Market Allowance, Fixed No Super (13.4%), Distinction Allowance, Fixed, No Super (8.3%), Attraction/Retention Remuneration, Variable, Super (30%) and Additional Responsibility Allowance, Fixed, No Super (28.5%).

Table 11 – Academic Staff Promotion, 2007
In 2007, women comprised 39.7% of all teaching and research academics promoted (i.e. 27 successful applicants out of 68). This figure represents a decrease in the percentage of academic women successfully gaining promotion through the academic ranks at UWA (down from 44% in the last reporting period). However, the current 39.7% is more in line with earlier reporting periods (38% in 2005), suggesting that the spike in 2006 may be an anomaly. Despite these yearly fluctuations, when the data is examined longitudinally from 2003-2007, women have a consistently lower application, but higher success rate (89.3%) than men (82.9%).
Application and success rates were fairly even between female and male academics up to the Senior Lecturer level in 2007. However, at the Associate Professor and Professorial levels, the number of female applications drops significantly (11 applications, 7 successful) while the number of male applications increases (29 applications, 23 successful). This trend is consistent with previous reporting periods.
Associate Professor to Professor – Women comprise 14.3% of successful applicants at this level, with only two women applying for and gaining promotion, compared to 12 successful men out of 13 applications.
Senior Lecturer to Associate Professor – Women comprise 31.2% of successful applicants.
Lecturer to Senior Lecturer – Women comprise exactly half of academic staff promoted in this category.
Associate Lecturer to Lecturer – Women comprise 60% of academic staff promoted in this category.

Table 13. Deans/ Head of Schools/ School Managers by Gender, March 2008
In 2007, for the first time, there were equal numbers of men and women Deans (including Dean, School of Indigenous Studies and Acting Dean, Faculty of Natural and Agricultural Sciences).
Women were well represented (60%, up from 57% in the previous reporting period) among School Managers and it is encouraging to note that this upward trend has also remained consistent since the academic restructure in 2002.
Conversely, the consistent trend of poor (albeit increasing) representation (16%) in the Heads of School category continues. This represents a significant concern as it is a possible feeder category for more senior levels of academic leadership, including positions such as Dean and Pro Vice-Chancellor.

Women continue to access OSDS training at a disproportionately higher rate than men in both the academic (51%) and professional staff categories (77%). The difference is considerably more marked in the latter case.

Table 14c. UWA Staff Development Grants, Gender and Level, 2007
At 65.8%, women continue to be the main recipients of this employment benefit. It is encouraging to note a trend whereby there are greater numbers of women accessing this benefit across all levels, unlike previous years where participation tended to be clustered around the more senior levels; i.e. Level 7 and above.

Table 15. Developmental Opportunities (HDA/Secondment), 2007
74.8% of internal secondments in the professional staff category are accessed by women and this is evenly spread across all levels, representing an increasing trend of women accessing this important career opportunity. The converse is true in the academic stream where a mere 17.8% of internal secondments are accessed by women. Senior male academic staff at Levels D and E account for 73.3% of secondments in the academic stream.
69.4% of women were in receipt of higher duties allowance among professional staff. It is interesting to note, from a gender pay equity perspective, that despite there being a preponderance of women (65.7%) in the overall professional staff category, only one more woman professional staff member at Level 10 and above (21 and 22 men and women respectively) was in receipt of higher duties allowance.
Notwithstanding the above, women at lower levels tend to receive this benefit (approximately two-thirds are at Level 5 and below as compared with a mere 30% of men receiving this benefit at or below this level). The majority of women recipients also tend to be ‘clustered’ in Administration while male recipients tend to be more evenly distributed throughout the organisation.

The 2008 data continues the pattern of the last two reporting periods, showing an encouraging decrease in the casualisation rate of women. Women represent 55.3% of all casual employees at UWA – down from 58% in the last reporting period. There is a notable corresponding decrease in the female professional staff stream – down from 63.5% to 62.4%.
