ASM Global Europe is required by law to publish an annual gender pay gap report. This is our report for the snapshot date of 5 April 2021. In line with the government guidance, employees who were receiving less than their full pay due to being on furlough leave under Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme have not been included in these calculations. ASM Global Europe operates live entertainment venues and as such at the snapshot date a large proportion of the team members were on furlough.

The figures set out above have been calculated using the standard methodologies used in the Equality Act 2010 (Gender Pay Gap Information) Regulations 2017.

ASM Global Europe is committed to the principle of equal opportunities and equal treatment for all employees, regardless of sex, race, religion or belief, age, marriage or civil partnership, pregnancy/maternity, sexual orientation, gender reassignment or disability. It has a clear policy of paying employees equally for the same or equivalent work, regardless of their sex (or any other characteristic set out above).

ASM Global Europe is therefore confident that its gender pay gap does not stem from paying men and women differently for the same or equivalent work. Rather its gender pay gap is the result of the roles in which men and women work within the organisation and the salaries that these roles attract.

I, Chris Bray, Executive Vice President, ASM Global (European Region), confirm that the information in this statement is accurate.
