Companies with a stock market listing in Australia would have to disclose more information about the number of women they employ and publish clear targets for getting more women into top jobs, under proposed new corporate governance rules.
Companies would have to reveal how many women they employ overall, how many hold senior management positions, and how many are board directors. They would also have to set “measurable objectives” for the number of women in each role, with information about what they are doing to achieve those objectives.
