Hanes Australasia is proud of our gender diverse workforce and the strong representation of women across all parts of our business.
Led by our President Tanya Deans, our ~3,600 team members are employed by one of three Australian Hanes entities: Hanes Australia Pty Ltd, Bras N Things Pty Ltd and Sheridan Australia Pty Ltd. Across these three businesses 60% of Leadership Team roles, 85% of Manager roles and 91% of total roles were occupied by women at 31 March 2025.
Interpreting the Workplace Gender Equality Agency (WGEA) calculation of our average base salary gender pay gap, it is important to note this is the difference in average and median base salaries, not salaries for like roles and this gap is reflective of both the composition of roles in our business and the categories of products that we sell. As a largely retail business, two thirds of our team members are employed to work in our network of retail stores. 94% of these team members are women, reflective of the largely female customer base in our Bras N Things stores, and to a lesser extent, our Bonds stores. The pay and conditions of all our Australian retail team members is governed by the General Retail Industry Award and tend to have a lower average salary compared with other roles within our business. This high proportion of women employed in these roles results in a lower average female salary across our business and therefore a larger calculated gender pay gap that is not reflective of how team members working in like roles are remunerated.
Hanes Australasia is committed to ensuring all team members – regardless of gender - have equitable access to opportunities and benefits, including equitable remuneration for like roles. We regularly review the remuneration for all salaried roles to ensure fair and consistent remuneration, and make adjustments where required.
