Reporting by Business on Executive Pay Ratios in Annual Reports Sample Clauses

Reporting by Business on Executive Pay Ratios in Annual Reports. Programme description South Africa has one of the highest levels of inequality in the world. This is reflected in the workplace where there are significant disparities between the pay of executives and lowest paid workers. There is currently no information available as to the extent of the disparity and how it manifests across sectors. There is also no consistent mechanism in place to measure disparities. With a lack of clarity on the ratio, and what should be included as remuneration in the formulation thereof, the disparity is not well understood. The purpose of this initiative is to understand the nature and extent of the challenge and how it manifests, and thereby develop a consciousness that will lead to action on the part of business. This will be done by first introducing voluntary reporting on pay ratios with the intention to move to mandatory reporting based on defined ratios. It is agreed that listed companies’ ratios will be publicly available in their Annual Reports and non-listed companies’ ratios, while not publicly available, will be published with their financial statements and available for scrutiny by shareholders and the like. This will operate in addition to income inequality reporting requirements in terms of Employment Equity legislation. The modalities and the feasibility of mandatory reporting must be informed by research and consultations with various stakeholders. By providing a mechanism for companies to report on wage ratios, this will highlight where there are significant disparities and will encourage employers to self-reflect and address the problem. This will also create a meaningful evidence base. Areas of intervention Social partners agreed to introduce voluntary reporting on pay ratios and to move to mandatory reporting based on evidence based defined ratios. In respect of the research to be undertaken Social Partners agreed to: • Establish a Nedlac Reference Group to provide oversight. • Engage with Ayabonga Cawe, Xesibe Holdings, regarding their research in order to develop a proposed methodology (including the desired ratio, scope and definitions). • Engage with: o The Johannesburg Stock Exchange in order to assess the feasibility of mandatory reporting of pay ratios among their listed companies. o The Auditing Profession with regard to reporting of the ratio in Annual Financial Statements. o Institute of Directors of South Africa (IODSA) on the role of Remuneration Committee (REMCO) in monitoring and addressing pay in...
