3D Personnel Limited is a leading name in construction recruitment for Ireland, the UK, and Europe. We supply Trades & Labour and Professional & Technical staff in the construction sector, and we are currently expanding our Multi-Sector division. We pride ourselves in placing high quality candidates in temporary, fixed term and permanent roles.
As 3D Personnel employs more than 250 employees, we are required under The Gender Pay Gap Information Act 2021 to publish our 2023 Gender Pay Gap Report. Please note our report relates to 3D Personnel Ireland only. In the interests of transparency, we have divided our report into three divisions:
Permanent Staff
Part-Time Staff
Temporary Staff
Percentage of Men v Women
As at the 30th June 2023 the percentage of men v women for the three divisions was recorded as follows:
| | |
This can be further analysed as follows:
Permanent Staff
Gender | Lower | Middle | Upper Middle | Upper |
Female headcount Male headcount | 33.33% 66.67% | 0.00% 100.00% | 28.57% 71.43% | 16.67% 83.33% |
The female headcount in the lower quartile has increased from 20% to 33.33%. However, the female headcount in the upper middle quartile has reduced slightly from 33.33% to 28.57%. The middle and upper quartiles remain the same.
Part-Time Staff
This is not relevant as our part-time staff are all female.
Temporary Staff
Gender | Lower | Middle | Upper Middle | Upper |
Female headcount Male headcount | 2.68% 97.32% | 0.00% 100.00% | 0.00% 100.00% | 0.00% 100.00% |
The female headcount in the lower quartile has reduced from 9.68% to 2.68% while the other three quartiles remain the same.

Conclusion
3D Personnel is an equal opportunity employer and as of the 30th of June 2023 the female headcount of our permanent staff increased from 18.18% to 20%. The pay gap and bonus pay gap is not a true reflection, as the calculation takes into account a great number of male staff employed over four quartiles, compared to a small number of female staff employed over three quartiles.
The provision of temporary labour to the construction industry is our core business, which is a predominantly male industry. This can be clearly seen from the statistics above for temporary staff.
The construction industry recognises the need for more women in the industry, from working on building sites to participation at board level. Salaries for the majority of our temporary workers are regulated by the Sectoral Employment Order (Construction Sector) 2023. Male and female workers are paid the same hourly rate for the same category of employment.
3D Personnel will continue to strive to reduce the gap between the number of men to women employed in all divisions of its business.
