Severn Trent in global gender equality list

Severn Trent has been included in the 2020 Bloomberg Gender-Equality Index – a track of financial performance of public companies committed to supporting gender equality through policy development, representation, and transparency.

The index measures gender equality across five areas: female leadership and talent pipeline, equal pay and gender pay parity, inclusive culture, sexual harassment policies, and pro-women brand. The 2020 index included 325 firms from 6,000 legible organisations across 84 countries.

Bloomberg said: “Through disclosure of gender-related metrics using the GEI framework, the firms included in the 2020 GEI have provided a comprehensive look at their investment in workplace gender equality and the communities in which they operate.”
