Mercialys Ranked Second on the SBF 120 for the Representation of Women in Management Structures, With a Score of 91.7 out of 100!

Regulatory News:

Mercialys (Paris:MERY) has moved up to second place in the overall ranking for the representation of women in management structures on the SBF 120. This progress, following the third place achieved in 2021, reflects Mercialys’ strong commitment to transposing gender equality across all dimensions of the Company.

Launched in 2013 in connection with monitoring the French Copé-Zimmermann Act, the annual ranking for the representation of women in management structures in listed companies, commissioned by the French Ministry of State for Gender Equality and carried out by ConvictionsRH, assessed the commitment by companies from the SBF 120 to supporting the representation of women in their management structures and, more widely, gender equality in the workplace. Specifically, this benchmark aims to measure the percentage of women in management structures and leadership roles, while also taking into account fair pay and efforts to raise awareness and provide training for management structures on parity aspects.

Mercialys’ commitment and achievements in this key area for businesses were praised by Ms Isabelle Rome, French Minister for Gender Equality, Diversity and Equal Opportunities.

Mercialys’ excellent ranking in this benchmark notably reflects the best practices put in place by its governance structures and all of its staff, illustrated by four significant indicators. On the one hand, a Board of Directors that has ensured parity since 2017, while 56% of its current directors are women. On the other hand, the structuring of a Management Committee that has also achieved parity. In 2021, the commitment to fair pay was reflected in a slight gap in favor of women. Lastly, the workplace gender equality index rating came to 92/100 (compared with an average of 86/100).

Mercialys’ actions are aligned with a responsible societal and environmental approach. The Company will continue with its efforts regarding parity, not only in terms of regulatory compliance, illustrating its commitment to respecting best practices, but also in line with a strong conviction led by its employees, managers and directors.
