ATTRACT DIVERSE TALENT We track candidates through the HR process to ensure that a diverse slate of highly qualified candidates, that includes those traditionally underrepresented in the real estate industry, are considered for every vacancy. We work with our recruitment partners to emphasize our requirement for highly qualified candidates from diverse backgrounds. We set a target of at least 25% of the candidate pool to be diverse when possible, and we then hire based on merit. We have successfully increased our diversity through hiring. NON-DISCRIMINATION As outlined in our Employee Handbook, we believe that everyone has the right to work in an environment that promotes equal opportunities and prohibits discriminatory practices, including sexual and other harassment and retaliation. We do not tolerate unlawful discrimination, including any form of unlawful sexual or other harassment or retaliation at work or in work-related settings by or against anyone. PAY EQUITY In 2023, we conducted a pay equity analysis with a third-party provider to understand the pay differential between male and female employees at the company. The survey’s results help build a strategy to maintain true pay equity across gender lines.
INCLUSION IN BLOOMBERG GENDER-EQUALITY INDEX ESRT has been selected for inclusion in the Bloomberg Gender-Equality Index in each of our three years of participation. The Bloomberg Gender-Equality Index aims to track the performance of public companies committed to transparency in gender data reporting. This reference index measures gender equality across five pillars: female leadership and talent pipeline, equal pay and gender pay parity, inclusive culture, anti-sexual harassment policies, and pro-women branding. We at ESRT are committed to equity across the gender spectrum to foster an inclusive and collaborative culture for our employees, tenants, and the communities we serve.
