EUTELSAT GENDER EQUALITY INDEX

Achieving professional equality between women and men: a legal obligation, but also a major priority and a continuous area of progress in the management of our human resources.

The Gender Equality Index is mandated by the French law on professional agency, effective from 5 September 2018. This law most notably seeks to eliminate the pay gap between women and men in France.

Eutelsat publishes the results of its 2025 Gender Equality Index.
Our gender equality score is 91/100.

The index is calculated based on five indicators:

  • Pay gap: 36/40
  • Gap in individual salary increases: 20/20
  • Promotion gap: 15/15
  • Percentage of women receiving a salary increase in the year following their return from maternity leave: 15/15
  • Number of employees of the underrepresented gender among the 10 highest-paid employees: 5/10

Empowering tomorrow's talent

At Eutelsat, supporting young professionals is an integral part of our social responsibility. We are proud to have been awarded the HappyTrainees 2026 label, which recognizes companies offering students and young graduates an enriching, stimulating, and supportive experience.

This recognition follows the results of the latest satisfaction survey, in which over 90% of our interns and apprentices in France said they would recommend Eutelsat as an employer. 

Throughout the year, numerous initiatives, driven by our HR teams and apprentices, help foster integration, collaboration, and team spirit among our young professionals. From onboarding sessions to afterwork events, each initiative contributes to building a dynamic and inclusive community.

This label reinforces our ambition to create a positive and empowering work environment, where every generation contributes to shaping a more inclusive and sustainable future.
