Gender Pay Gap Report 2017

We are publishing this report as part of a new Government initiative that requires UK companies with 250 or more staff to publish data on their gender pay gap ? Dow Jones International Limited (London) falls into this category. We welcome this transparency and fully endorse the need to eliminate the gender pay gap and continue to improve gender equality within our organisation.

Our UK gender pay gap statistics have been independently reviewed by Willis Towers Watson.

Results summary

This report focuses only on our UK entity and the data represents less than 10% of Dow Jones's global workforce.

The chart below shows the mean and median gender pay gap as of April 2017, as well as mean and median bonus figures for the previous 12 months, for Dow Jones International Limited (London).
