The gender pay gap measures the percentage difference in average earnings between all men and women, regardless of role. This is distinct from equal pay, which ensures equal pay for equal work.

Our mean hourly pay gap has decreased to 33.4% from 34.7%, while the median pay gap stands at 36.3%, slightly improved from 37.8% last year. These figures reflect ongoing progress over time, yet the pace of change remains insufficient.

We remain committed to improving gender balance across the firm, particularly at the most senior levels, and to addressing the challenges head-on to close the gender pay gap.
