Diageo publishes Gender Pay Gap Report for Great Britain and Scotland

Diageo Great Britain and Diageo Scotland combined:

• 2025 median gender pay gap was -2.2% (2024: -3.9%)
• 2025 mean gender pay gap was -2.5% (2024: -11.1%)

Diageo Great Britain

• 2025 median gender pay gap was -9.0% (2024: -10.2%)
• 2025 mean gender pay gap was 0.0% (2024: -1.1%)

Diageo Scotland:

• 2025 median gender pay gap was +15.6% (2024: +13.7%)
• 2025 mean gender pay gap was +8.5% (2024: +4.7%)

We can report that our combined median hourly pay gap has decreased to -2.2% from -3.9% in 2024. This is significantly below the current Office for National Statistics figure of +12.8% for businesses in the United Kingdom. Our mean hourly pay gap has also narrowed from -11.1% last year to -2.5%.

In Great Britain, our mean pay gap has closed entirely to 0.0% for the first time since reporting began. We also continue to narrow the gap in receivership of bonus between men and women across Diageo Great Britain and Scotland, with Diageo Scotland showing a difference of only 0.6%.

We are delighted that Diageo continues to be recognised externally for our progress in gender equality. In the 2026 FTSE Women Leaders Review, we retained our position as number one for female representation at Board level, as well as seventh for women in leadership.

While these results reflect meaningful progress, we know there is more to do. A workplace that embraces inclusion and diversity is not only a better place for everyone, it also strengthens business performance. By continuing to hold ourselves accountable and championing gender equity across every part of our organisation, we can build a stronger, more inclusive Diageo for today and for the future.
