In 2024, the methodology on the gender pay gap calculations was changed to meet the requirements of the ESRS. The gender pay gap of 14% consists of individual gender pay gaps across countries where Ørsted operates. The differences in gender mix across career levels impact the pay gap. Salaries are reviewed annually, and increases come into effect on 1 June. Employees must have been employed for 12 months on that date to be included in the calculation.
