Key Takeaways:
- France’s Gender Equality Index 2023 shows that workplace gender equality is improving, but challenges remain in leadership and pay gaps.
- The index highlights progress in education and health sectors, but a strong gender imbalance persists in decision-making roles.
- Companies must take more proactive steps in promoting gender equality, with targeted policies that address unconscious bias and support career advancement.
Cornerstone is committed to creating a diverse and inclusive workplace where everyone feels included and valued for their authenticity at work.
Since March 1, 2020, companies with fewer than 250 employees have been required to publish their Gender Equality Index.
- Gender pay gap: 34 points out of 40
- Differences in the distribution of individual increases: 35 points out of 35
- Employees returning from maternity leave: 15 points out of 15
- Parity among the 10 highest earners: 5 points Out of 10
Cornerstone is aware of the investments needed to improve its score, so it was obvious to focus the action plan on :
- Compensation, ensuring that pay gaps are closed
- Recruitment by continuing to implement a global and local diversity and inclusion policy
- Promotion by ensuring equal opportunities for career development: each Cornerstar will continue to benefit from the same opportunities for career development, depending on the vacancies available
These actions are part of Cornerstone's core values. We're proud to be an EOE (Equal Opportunity Employer), just as we're proud of the diversity of our Cornerstars, who come from different backgrounds, feel valued for their contribution and can realize their full potential.
