Driving change

Underpinned by our D&I Policy and endorsed by the Board and Executive Committee, our internal networks are a catalyst for action:

Voice of the People

Voice of the People (VoTP)

VoTP champions our D&I strategy and brings it to life throughout the business. Made up of people from across the organisation, VoTP's focus is on promoting equality and embedding our values. VoTP implements a groupwide programme of initiatives and events. These relate to gender, ability, culture, LGBTQ+ and age.

Womens Network

Women's Network

Our Women's Network is integral to improving gender diversity at all levels in PM Group. It aims to drive change, facilitate knowledge sharing and provide a platform for networking and mentoring.  Comprised of a diverse group of women from across the organization, it represents all levels in every location.

Measuring our progress

Key Performance Indicators help to drive activity and measure our progress.

  • KPI examples include gender representation across regions and levels, engagement with D&I focused training, participation in inclusion events, etc.
  • Gender Pay Gap Reporting: Read our 2023 Gender Pay Gap Report for Ireland
  • We conduct annual surveys and pulse surveys to measure the most pertinent areas of improvement

Reported on at Board level, measurement from our KPIs is fed back to VoTP, Women’s Network, HR and leadership teams. This helps to identify improvements and promote further change businesswide.
