The CBI commented on Lord
Davies’ third annual progress report into Women on
Boards.
Katja Hall, CBI Chief
Policy Director, said:
“These latest figures show
the voluntary approach recommended by business to Lord Davies is working.
However there is still some way to go, so now is not the time to take our foot
off the accelerator.
“Lord Davies is absolutely
right to highlight the need to address the pipeline of future female directors
if we’re going to achieve real parity. This is something that businesses
are committed to doing, and real progress is now being made on building
workplaces that help all staff, male or female, develop their careers and
manage their work-life balance effectively.”
