Women’s Salaries compared to men’s
In 2019, the Company carried out an exercise to identify the gap between men’s and women’s salaries, at equal working conditions, in similar positions. The following assumptions were considered:
- People who joined the Company during that year;
- People from Empresas CMPC at the corporate level and/or Fundación CMPC;
- People in categories C, D, and F of CMPC’s position platform.
In 2020, the salary gap identification exercise was repeated, considering 100% of the people who joined that year and the total number of people who joined in the previous year.
