Gender equity is a major component of our commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion. Although we do not currently have a time-bound action plan, we understand the need to continually work toward increasing the representation of women in leadership positions and

in the company overall. We have a variety of global programs and incentives in place that focus on the hiring, retention and promotion of women across the company. As a result of these programs, we have achieved gender parity at all levels (junior, mid and senior) both in the U.S. and globally. The Women's Leadership Network is one of our most active Business Resource Groups and continually works to advance the role of women in leadership in our company.

At the Board level, our Policy on Board Diversity reflects our commitment to actively seek out women and ethnically diverse candidates when identifying and evaluating director candidates.

We comply with all country-specific pay gap disclosure requirements, but do not currently publish our global pay gap figures. We are committed to pay equity across our network, and to increasing representation of women in senior roles.

Although we do not currently have a time-bound action plan, we annually conduct pay equity reviews in conjunction with an external consultant to compare compensation on the basis of gender and race between employees who are similarly situated with respect to factors such as job function, experience and geography. Our analysis covers the U.S. and many international markets, representing more than 90% of our global workforce. We are gradually expanding to cover our full population. Based on analyses to date, there are no findings of widespread pay inequalities. We take steps to correct any individual anomalies that have been identified.
