Vevey / Geneva, 6 March 2025 – The EQUAL-SALARY Foundation is pleased to announce that Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance has obtained the EQUAL-SALARY certification, a symbol of excellence in terms of equal pay, for the 3rd time. After successfully passing the statistical analysis of its salaries, Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance underwent an internal audit entrusted to PwC proving that it applied equal pay and equal opportunities for women and men.
The EQUAL-SALARY certification is valid for 3 years, during which, the company undergoes two monitoring audits. After 3 years, if the organisation wants to keep its label, it needs to renew the certification process with a new salary analysis and a full on-site audit.
“Gavi’s third EQUAL-SALARY certification sends the powerful signal that workplace equality is both achievable and essential. Gavi’s achievement – the first global health organisation to obtain 3 EQUAL-SALARY certifications – strengthens its position as an employer of choice, attracting top talent. Congratulations to Gavi, its leadership, HR team, and employees. Keep leading the way and shaping the future of workplace equality!”, commented Noémie Storbeck co-CEO of the EQUAL-SALARY Foundation.
“Being certified for the third time as an equal salary employer is a significant milestone for Gavi. We believe that equal pay for equal work is not just the right thing to do, but a practice that drives innovation and excellence. We remain committed to creating a workplace where everyone has the opportunity to thrive and contribute to our collective success”, added Sania Nishtar, CEO of Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance.
