Vevey / Prague 3 June, 2024 – The EQUAL-SALARY Foundation is pleased to announce that PricewaterhouseCoopers Česká Republika has obtained the EQUAL-SALARY certification, a symbol of excellence in terms of equal pay, for all employees of PwC in Czech Republic. After successfully passing the statistical analysis of its salaries, PwC Czech Republic underwent an internal audit entrusted to Mazars 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 organization wants to keep its label, it needs to renew the certification process with a new salary analysis and a full on-site audit.
« We are delighted to welcome PwC Czech Republic as part of the community of EQUAL-SALARY certified companies! As an EQUAL-SALARY audit partner subjecting themselves to the same rigorous standards they advocate for, PwC sets a precedent for integrity and accountability toward gender equality in the workplace. This inspiring achievement contributes significantly to the social aspect of ESG standards and the attraction of top talent, ensuring a diverse and talented workforce to secure future successes », commented Lisa Rubli co-CEO of the EQUAL-SALARY Foundation.
« Fair conditions in the labor market stimulate greater loyalty, efficiency, and personal development of employees. Therefore, it should be the natural ambition and goal of every company to offer such conditions. This inherent internal ambition should be the main driver of change, not external pressure from clients, business partners, or state authorities. For us at PwC, equal working conditions have long been one of the key themes of fair business practices. Therefore, I am very pleased that we have also officially ranked among the leaders of the Czech labor market in this regard » added Jiří Moser, Managing Partner of PwC Czech Republic.
