A message from South32
  • In FY23, we achieved 50% representation of women on our Lead Team and 44% representation of women on our Board, exceeded our FY23 targets.
  • We continue to target pay equity for our employees, with respect to gender and ethnicity, by reducing spend year-on-year. We completed our equity pay review, investing US$338,000 to improve pay equity, narrowly missing our target of reducing spend year-on-year to close the pay gap.
