The index includes 484 companies across 11 sectors from 45 countries. Of the five Hong Kong companies listed on this year’s index, three of them are Swire companies: Swire Properties, Swire Pacific and Cathay Pacific. This achievement reflects our dedication to advancing gender equality in the workplace. We have worked, and will continue to work, towards fostering an inclusive and supportive working environment for all our people by creating an environment where everyone feels comfortable and able to reach their full potential. This year, we developed targets around gender balance, seeking to maintain a workplace female representation of no less than 40%. In 2022, 40.2% of our workforce was female, with 38.3% of senior management positions held by women. Our gender pay ratio is very close to full equality, with the ratio being 1:0.98 (female to male) in 2022. The GEI is a modified market capitalisation-weighted index developed to gauge the performance of public companies in terms of gender-related data reporting. The index measures gender equality across five pillars: the leadership and talent pipeline, equal pay and gender pay parity, inclusive culture, anti-sexual harassment policies, and external branding.
