Welcome Back to Netwomen: Let’s Make 2025 a Year of Closing the Pay Gap

At Netwomen, our mission is to empower companies and individuals to address pay equity gaps and build more inclusive workplaces. As we enter 2025, it’s time to focus on meaningful action and tangible results. The gender pay gap remains a critical issue, with the UK’s current average pay gap at 14.9% according to the Office for National Statistics. Many organisations are eager to bridge this gap but find themselves struggling with where to start or how to sustain progress.

The Challenge of Closing the Gap

Despite significant progress in workplace equality, pay disparities persist. A 2024 study revealed that 60% of companies have identified pay inequities but lack the strategic framework to address them. These inequities not only hinder career progression for women but also negatively impact team morale, company culture, and overall business success.

How Netwomen Can Help

At Netwomen, we partner with organisations to create customised strategies that tackle pay equity challenges head-on. Through our coaching, training, and development programmes, we provide the tools and insights companies need to:

  • Identify gaps in pay structures.
  • Develop leadership pipelines for women.
  • Foster inclusive workplace cultures that attract and retain top talent.
