正文(英文) | Women make up more than a third of all board members across the FTSE 350 for the first timeBusiness Secretary Alok Sharma urges all FTSE 350 companies to meet the mark of 33% women on boards by the end of December 2020.
For the first time more than a third of board members in the UK’s top 350 companies as a whole are women, new data has shown. The figures show a continued increase in representation of women on the boards of the FTSE 350 companies. Despite the challenges faced by businesses through the COVID-19 pandemic, representation of women at the top of business has risen by 3.8% in the last year. While the FTSE 350 as a whole has met the government-backed Hampton-Alexander Review’s target to make 33% of board members women individually, some businesses are still failing to meet the mark. The latest data shows that 41% of FTSE 350 companies have not reached 33% woman representation, and Business Secretary Alok Sharma is now calling for all companies to take action to ensure they reach the target ahead of the end of December 2020. Concerningly, the data has also revealed that 18 boards within the FTSE 250 remain ‘one and done’ boards, where companies appoint a single woman board member and go no further. There is also one all-male board - this figure is down from 152 all-male boards in 2011. Business Secretary Alok Sharma said:
Denise Wilson OBE, Chief Executive of the Hampton Alexander Review said:
Sir Phillip Hampton, Chair of the Hampton-Alexander Review said:
Chris Cummings, Chief Executive of the Investment Association, said:
The process for gathering gender data in the next senior leadership tiers is an annual process, whereby companies submit their own gender data via a secure portal on the Hampton-Alexander Review website. The portal will open on 2 November for companies to submit their leadership data for the final report, and will close on 30 November. For more details please go to the Hampton Alexander Review website. Notes to editors
