Result of the gender equality index¹ 2023 for IMA Gie: 94 / 100

The results of the 5 indicators making up this 2023 index are as follows:

39 / 40 (pay gap)

20 / 20 (difference in the rate of individual increases)

15 / 15 (difference in promotion rates)

15 / 15 (percentage of employees receiving a pay rise on return from maternity leave)

5 / 10 (number of employees of the under-represented sex in the top 10 highest earners)

Furthermore, in 2023, for IMA Gie, 31% of senior managers² will be women and 69% men².

¹ The obligation to calculate and publish this index stems from Law 2018-771 of 5 September 2018 for the freedom to choose one's professional future (Articles L. 1142-8, D. 1142-2 and -3 of the Labour Code). This index, made up of 5 indicators, is used to calculate the pay gap between women and men, and to determine a score out of 100. Companies with an overall score of less than 85/100 must set improvement targets for each of the indicators and publish these targets. Companies with an overall score of less than 75/100 must also define appropriate and relevant corrective measures by agreement or, failing that, by unilateral decision, and publish these measures.
² In addition, article L1142-11 of the French Labour Code provides for the publication of gender gaps in the representation of senior managers from 1 March 2022.
