🎯Lucy Brown, DEI and Pay Equity Consulting Leader at Mercer UK, highlights the power of comprehensive diversity data collection in the latest of our digital sessions in the lead-up to the second Women in Work Summit at King's Place, London on 26th September. 🧭It’s not only about the gender pay gap; it’s about understanding the full spectrum of employee experiences, Lucy explains. 📲 “In our research, we see that 53% of women feel their pay is fair, compared to 62% of men, one in five. Women don't feel psychologically safe at work. Women are more likely to feel physically or mentally unwell and still feel they have to go to work. And they're also less able than men to be their authentic selves at work. So many organisations are not really looking beyond the gender pay gap – and are therefore failing to understand the dynamics of gender around culture, health, financial wellbeing, and career progression.” 🏹Lucy goes on to explain how the importance of diversity, equity, and inclusion in the workplace has been increasingly recognised by businesses worldwide. ⚖️As the EU’s new pay transparency directives take effect, UK businesses are feeling the pressure to step up. Forward-thinking companies are already planning to meet these new standards, and while the journey may be challenging, the benefits—greater innovation, increased productivity, and a sense of belonging—are undeniable. ⬆️The directive is expected to raise expectations of pay transparency across Europe, and potentially influence UK legislation. To understand more about how organisations are approaching pay transparency, and any challenges that might come with this, Mercer is inviting leaders to participate in its latest research. ➡️Please find the survey link here until 30th June: ⬇️⬇️⬇️ https://lnkd.in/etFr9AJz 🖥️Catch our Women in Work Summit digital series, ahead of the event at Kings Place, London, 26th September. 🔗Secure your pass now via the website 👀Watch LIVE or ON-DEMAND at any time with your pass #womeninwork #WorkplaceInclusion #GenderEquity #data #paytransparency
