by
Elisabeth Borne is preparing to distribute a few sticks. In a daily interview Les Echos, the Minister of Labor announced, Monday, March 7, that sixteen companies “will be the subject of financial sanctions for lack of their obligations in terms of professional equality. This decision has been made public on the eve of the International Women’s Rights Day, in order to accredit the idea that the government does not relax its action against sex discrimination.
The administrative fines, which will be inflicted by a few months, after a contradictory procedure, are part of a system created in 2018: the women-men index. Now, companies of at least 50 people must calculate and communicate, each year, this indicator from the combination of at least four variables: the gap of remuneration, disparities in individual wage increases, the number of workers increased upon their return from maternity leave, parity among the ten highest pay cards. A fifth parameter is added for companies with more than 250 employees: the distribution of promotions according to sex.
On this basis, a 100-point rating system has been set up. If the result obtained is less than 75 for three consecutive years, the boss exposes himself to a penalty of up to 1% of the payroll. It is by virtue of this measure that sixteen companies, whose name has been passed on to the echos, are tapped on the fingers today. Among the punish, there is the Paris-Saint-Germain football club (PSG). Solicited by Le Monde, it emphasizes that the ten highest earnings criterion “is not suitable” to the professional sector. In other words, women can not win as much as the best paid men. The United Nations Organization, responsible for representing the employers of the branch, also asked the Ministry of Labor if it was possible to develop texts which, according to it, set targets out of the reach of the clubs. very strong singularities of their economic model.
The other fifteen reprimanded companies have a much lower notoriety than the PSG or are even unknown to the general public: the SKEMA business school, the photobox cliché developer, the Egencia travel organizer, etc.
