TGS has announced it is one of 418 companies across 11 sectors and 45 countries and regions included in the 2022 Bloomberg Gender-Equality Index (GEI).
TGS is one of two Norwegian companies and one of 18 energy companies in the 2022 GEI.
The GEI is a modified market capitalization-weighted index that aims to track the performance of public companies committed to transparency in gender-data reporting. The GEI scoring methodology allows investors to assess company performance and compare across industry peer groups.
Whitney Eaton, EVP of people and sustainability at TGS, said, ‘We are extremely pleased to be included in the Bloomberg Gender-Equality Index for the second year in a row and to have improved our score from our first year. We recognize gender diversity is an ongoing challenge, but we are proud of the steps we have taken thus far. TGS strives to create an inclusive work environment and to be transparent in our efforts and progress.’
The reference index measures gender equality across five pillars: female leadership and talent pipeline, equal pay and gender pay parity, inclusive culture, anti-sexual harassment policies, and pro-women brand.
Peter T. Grauer, chairman of Bloomberg and founding chairman of the US 30% Club, said: “Even though the threshold for inclusion in the GEI has risen, the member list continues to grow. This is a testament that more companies are working to improve upon their gender-related metrics, fostering more opportunity for diverse talent to succeed in their organizations.’
