A list of the top 50 employers for women (in alphabetical order) has been published by The Times and Opportunity Now, detailing the organisations that are making the most progress in workplace gender equality. The list consists of organisations that have succeeded in putting gender diversity at the heart of their business strategies, as well as showing a commitment to progressing women throughout their organisations. The list was published on the same day as French research that showed that companies led by management teams of at least 35% women demonstrated significantly better investment performance than the companies listed on the CAC40, the French stock index.
