For the fourth year running, Anglo American has been listed as one of The Times Top 50 Employers for Gender Equality for its commitment to making gender equality a priority in the workplace.
The Times Top 50 Employers for Gender Equality is the UK’s most highly profiled and well-established list of employers taking action and making gender equality part of their business strategy at all levels.
Business in the Community (BITC) has been running The Times Top 50 for 14 years, as part of its Gender Equality work, which focuses on equality for all genders and those who do not identify as a gender.
According to BITC, the organisations featured in the list have taken a proactive approach to stamp out inequalities in their workplaces by creating action plans to address disparities ranging from pay to progression.
Applicants were assessed on the work they do to remove gender inequalities in the workplace, including flexible working, family friendly policies, pay, reward, and progression at work.
Monique Carter, People & Organisation Director, said: “Anglo American is proud to be included in the widely admired Times Top 50 Employers for Gender Equality list for the fourth year running. Featuring on this list is a very welcome recognition of our commitment to gender inclusion, not just in the UK, but globally. “
From addressing pay disparities to better supporting those with caring responsibilities, many employees, women among them, still face barriers to finding employment and progressing in their careers. It is every employer’s responsibility to play their part in reducing and removing gender inequalities from the workplace, and research shows this isn’t just the right thing to do, it also makes business sense.”
