In the UK, the gender pay gap is 15.4% - averaged across all ages, and full and part time employment. There’s been an ongoing downwards trend since the Equal Pay Act in 1970, but let’s be honest - we should be there by now.
We believe everyone should be paid equally for their work, no matter their gender.
At Vivobarefoot, we mostly get this right. The exception is at our executive level of pay, where the gap is 3.7%. While this is progress, it’s unfinished business; we must do better.
We’re telling you all this because transparency is really important to us. Not being open enough is how we all got into this mess.
To recognise the bigger picture, and to uphold our commitment to inspiring everyone to reconnect to nature, we’re offering 20% off our entire women’s outdoor range for the rest of March; levelling the field, so more women can experience the benefits of being in one.
