Thales in the UK Achieves Gender Pay Gap Milestone
January 23, 2025 | ThalesEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
Thales in the UK has reached an important milestone in its journey towards workplace equity, reducing its mean and median gender pay gap to 9.1% - the first time this figure has fallen below 10%. This progress, outlined in the newly published 2024 Pay Gap Report, highlights the ongoing efforts to address gender disparities and foster a more inclusive workplace.
The report also features the third Ethnicity Pay Gap Report, which shows a mean ethnicity pay gap of 4.7% and a median gap of 2%. These figures represent positive progress; however, Thales acknowledges that we still have work to do to completely close these gaps. While the report reflects our ongoing commitments to equity, diversity, and inclusion, it also reminds us that both we and the broader industry must continue to make improvements in this area.
This year’s results align with Thales Group’s global adoption of the UN Women’s Empowerment Principles (WEPs), reinforcing the organisation’s shared commitment to gender equality and inclusivity.
