WiW GEM: Elevating Gender Equity

Gender equity isn’t just a moral imperative—it’s a business advantage. Our WiW100 GEM Report shines a spotlight on 400 of the largest UK companies excelling in board representation, pay gap transparency, and parental policies. Download the report here.

Honouring the WiW 100 Companies

We’re celebrating the organisations that are already proudly sharing their WIW 100 accreditation.

These companies are proud to be recognised in the first ever Women in Work Gender Equity Measure Top 100, a list of UK businesses working hardest to close gender equity gaps.

This badge of honour means that they have surpassed the three key measures set out by Women in Work: equal board representation; no (or low) pay gaps; plus transparent and supportive female and family policies. These are all measures that indicate progress, not just promises.

Thank you for sharing and showing the way:

Accenture UK & Ireland, Asda, Britvic plc, C&C Group,Diageo, The Estée Lauder Companies Inc., Greencore, IKEA, London Stock Exchange, United Utilities, National Grid, Octopus Energy, Rolls-Royce, Sainsbury's, SpiresHealth, Tate & Lyle

Companies on the WiW 100 list know that gender equity should be the north star for business, because they recognise that the most valuable asset to business is talent. And that equity progress is not just good for women, it's good for business.

We now call on all companies to measure where they are now, commit to move the dial faster, share their results, and join us in the Women in Work movement.

Is your company on the list? Do you want to be included in 2025? Check here and learn how to share your accreditation & join this group of changemakers.
