Professional equality

Professional equality

Created in 2018, the professional equality index between women and men helps to fight against gender salary inequalities. Mandatory in all companies with at least 50 employees, the index is calculated from 4 to 5 indicators giving a score of up to 100. If the result obtained is less than 75, the company will have to implement actions in order to reach at least this score.

Already strongly committed to this approach, EMI publishes its index with a score of 89/100. The company will try to improve this score every year.
