    Professional Equality Index

    Following the publication on the 5th of September 2018 of a new law in France for the freedom to choose one’s professional future, companies are required to calculate and publish on their website an index that allows their situation to be measured in areas relating to professional equality between women and men.

    The Gender Equality Index is calculated using 5 indicators. The maximum score that can be obtained is 100 points distributed as follows:

    1. gender pay gap (39/40 points);
    2. difference in the distribution of individual pay increases (20/20 points);
    3. difference in the distribution of promotions (15/15 points);
    4. number of employees benefited from an increase upon their return from maternity leave (15/15 points);
    5. number of people of the under-represented sex among the 10 highest paid (5/10 points).

    For the year 2022, the “UES OSC Aktua” obtained a score of 94 out of 100 points. This result is improving and stands well in our industrial context.

    It strengthens our will to continue our actions with the ambition to further advance professional equality to reach or even exceed, each year, the minimum score of 75/100.
