Vevey / Warsaw, 27 May 2025 – The EQUAL-SALARY Foundation is pleased to announce that PwC Polska Sp. z o.o. has obtained the Equal Pay and Opportunities, by EQUAL-SALARY certification, a symbol of excellence in terms of equal pay and equal opportunities, for all employees of PwC in Poland. After successfully passing the statistical analysis of its salaries, PwC Poland underwent an internal audit entrusted to Forvis Mazars, proving that it practicies equal pay and equal opportunities for women and men.
The Equal Pay and Opportunities, by EQUAL-SALARY certification is valid for three 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.
“We are proud to welcome PwC Polska as part of the community of EQUAL-SALARY certified companies! As an EQUAL-SALARY audit partner, they have held themselves to the same expectations they promote in others by implementing equal pay and equal opportunities with credibility and purpose. Being EQUAL-SALARY certified not only means long-term success and organisational resilience, it also strengthens the appeal of PwC Polska to top talent in a competitive global market”, commented Lisa Rubli, co-CEO of the EQUAL-SALARY Foundation.
“Being only the third company in Poland to achieve this mark is not just an honour but also a reason for deeper reflection. The pay gap remains a major challenge for Polish companies. Only 28% of the CEOs of large, listed companies in Poland are women – a stark figure. New EU regulations mandating female representation on company boards are a step in the right direction, but real change must start within the internal policies of organisations. We strive to integrate equality processes into our daily operations, and I hope that both this approach and the certification EQUAL-SALARY can serve as a signal for the entire market — not just within the professional services sector in which we operate”, added Katarzyna Komorowska, Partner at PwC Poland and Leader of the People & Organization team.
