Pay equity

We are committed to offering equal pay and remuneration to employees with the same job requirements, skills and experience, who work in the same location.

In 2022, we continued to conduct an in-depth gender pay gap study encompassing all employees and locations. We found that, across Nutreco, our gender pay gap is below 5%. We have pockets where we noticed bigger gaps – both negative and positive – but these could be explained by, for example, job type or tenure. We will perform another analysis in 2023 to monitor our current status and developments. For countries or locations where we see a pay gap above 5%, we will investigate the root cause and create an action plan, if needed.

Even without a gender pay gap, we will continue to work on our policies and practices through consistent application of our job family framework and job grading and by safeguarding internal equity, increasing transparency, having policies to define eligibility for compensation and benefit plans and recording any exceptions.

While our efforts are aimed directly at the gender pay gap, we believe that by creating more awareness and transparency we are working toward more equitable pay, or pay based on job requirements, skills and experience, irrespective of gender, religion, ethnicity or sexual orientation.
