‘Clear evidence of a significant imbalance’ across the news media company, it concedes

In its first report on the gender pay gap following the introduction of Government legislation this year, Mediahuis said it paid male and female employees equally for doing the same role at the same level in the organisation.

Belgian-headquartered Mediahuis acquired the former Independent News & Media in 2019 and its Irish operations are led by chief executive Peter Vandermeersch. Mediahuis said it would “substantially increase and develop our female workforce across all functions and levels within our business” to improve this ratio. It also said it would play its part to help achieve the wider group’s ambition for 50:50 gender balanced leadership by 2030.
