Women on the Board Pledge call

MEP Nessa Childers has urged the top 100 Irish publicly-listed companies to sign the Women on the Board Pledge.

“This pledge represents a commitment to increase women’s presence on corporate boards to 30% by 2015 and to 40% by 2020. Open for signatures from all publicly listed companies in Europe, this week I have contacted all top 100 publicly-listed Irish companies urging them to sign up,” she said.
