𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗚𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗣𝗮𝘆 𝗚𝗮𝗽 𝗶𝗻 𝗙𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲: 𝗔 𝗣𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗲 New figures from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) highlight a shocking reality: women in senior finance roles earn 28% less than their male counterparts, a pay gap larger than almost every other profession. Over the past five years, progress in narrowing this gap has been minimal, with only a 2.2% reduction in the financial services industry. In stark contrast, other sectors, such as advertising and transportation, have made significant strides toward pay equity. 𝘞𝘩𝘺 𝘪𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘩𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘦𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨? Underrepresentation - women are still less likely to hold senior roles in finance. Lack of transparency - pay and progression pathways in the industry remain opaque. Bonuses worsen the gap - when bonuses are factored in, disparities grow even wider. Read the full article in The Times here: https://lnkd.in/eM9a_XKT.
