Entain strives to narrow the gender wage gap
Its 2021 annual report reflects ongoing company efforts to achieve equal gender pay in the workplace.
Entain has published its annual financial report and its gender pay gap report for 2021. It reported a decrease in its median hourly pay by almost two percentage points during the year.
The company reaffirms its commitment to gender equality in its workspace.
Entain CEO Jette Nygaard-Andersen said: “At Entain our vision is to create a ‘best place to work’ where our colleagues feel valued, respected, and engaged, and to ensure that this is reflected in the way they are rewarded. We are pleased to report that our median hourly pay gap has reduced to 5.3% from 7.1% – substantially lower than the national average of 15.4%. This reflects the gender parity in our retail business where 54% of or colleagues are female.
“While we are encouraged by this, we take nothing for granted and have put in place programs and policies such as EnTrain and Women@Entain which will help us continue on this journey. This approach to diversity, equity and inclusion is vital to our purpose of revolutionizing betting and gaming interactive entertainment.”
