Saint-Gobain again in the Bloomberg Gender-Equality Index
For the fifth consecutive time, Saint-Gobain has been included in the Bloomberg Gender Equality Index (GEI), which this year comprises 484 companies representing 45 countries. The index measures companies' gender equality performance on the basis of five criteria: leadership and talent pipeline, equal pay and gender pay parity, inclusive culture, anti-sexual harassment policies and external brand.
“We are very proud to be part of this index once again. Diversity in general, gender diversity and equality between men and women in particular are very important issues for our Group. Being listed in the Gender Equality Index is a testimony to our commitment and a recognition of the work we have accomplished. Today, 37.5% of our Executive Committee members are women and our objective for 2025 is to reach 30% of women executives within the Group, compared to 27.2% in 2022. We continue to work steadily on developing an inclusive culture that respects diversity. In our latest survey of Group employees at the end of 2022, 90% of them responded that they felt respected for who they are”, says Claire Pedini, Senior Vice President, Human Resources and Corporate Social Responsibility.
