Sector benchmark · 2025–26
The median reported hourly pay gap across employers classified in this sector. Sector figures give context; they do not establish which employers perform well or badly.
This sector brings together cultural and entertainment organisations, sport, leisure, recreation and related activities.
Permanent, casual, performance, technical and administrative work may sit within the same filing, so workforce composition matters when reading the headline gap. A pay gap describes the whole workforce and does not show whether people receive equal pay for equal work.
Across 377 classified employers, the sector median was 2.6% in 2025–26, 1.4 percentage points narrower compared with 2017.

These are the widest gaps in the filed data, not a ranking of the “worst” employers. Workforce structure, occupations and the legal entity covered all affect the result.
