Femmes, CA et Grande-Bretagne : « Women on boards: 5 year summary »

En 2011, Lord Davies avait publié des recommandations pour accroître la proportion des femmes au sein des CA des entreprises de l’indice FTSE100 avec un objectif d’au moins 25 % de femmes à l’horizon 2015. Quel est le bilan ?

Positif, pardi ! En effet, un rapport publié le 29 octobre 2015 (« Women on boards: 5 year summary (Davies Review) », Department for Business, Innovation & Skills) démontre que l’objectif a été atteint.

There are more women on FTSE 350 boards than ever before, with representation of women more than doubling since 2011 – now at 26.1% on FTSE 100 boards and 19.6% on FTSE 250 boards. We have also seen a dramatic reduction in the number of all-male boards. There were 152 in 2011. Today there are no all-male boards in the FTSE 100 and only 15 in the FTSE 250.

Parmi les 5 recommandations faites pour le futur, signalons :

• The national call for action and voluntary, business-led approach is continued for a further five year period, ensuring substantive and sustainable improvement in women’s representation on Boards of FTSE 350 companies into the future
• Increasing the voluntary target for women’s representation on Boards of FTSE 350 companies, to a minimum of 33% to be achieved in the next five years.
• All stakeholders to work together to ensure increasing numbers of women are appointed to the roles of Chair, Senior Independent Director and into Executive Director positions on Boards of FTSE 350 companies.
• All FTSE Listed companies now assess the gender balance on their Boards and take prompt action to address any shortfall

À la prochaine…
