TI

Introduction

At Texas Instruments Incorporated (TI), we believe diversity fuels innovation and makes our company stronger. We believe that cultivating an equal-opportunity environment where men and women, minorities and non-minorities, are treated equitably is key to our company's success. TI has long been committed to competitive and equitable compensation for all employees, and we are confident that our pay practices support this commitment.

Texas Instruments (U.K.) Ltd. ("TI U.K." or the "company"), a subsidiary of TI, is a semiconductor manufacturing company that employs 299 people at its site in Greenock, Scotland: 101 women and 198 men.

In 2016, the company announced plans to end production at the Greenock site and has since sold the site and operations to Diodes, Inc. The acquisition was completed on April 1, 2019, at which time all employees at the site became employed by Diodes.

The Equality Act 2010 (Gender Pay Gap Information) Regulations 2017 require companies with 250 or more employees in the U.K. to analyse and publish their gender pay gap and bonus data.

Definitions

  • The gender pay gap measures the difference between the average pay of all male and all female employees, not taking into account job type or job level.
  • Gender pay parity refers to the analysis of the workforce as a whole at TI U.K., comparing pay for women vs. men, and taking into account job type and job level.

Additional gender-pay-parity analysis

We also conducted a separate gender-pay-parity analysis of base salary, bonus and equity at TI U.K., taking into account job type and job level, and confirmed that women are paid as much as men.

Understanding the gender pay gap in the technology sector and at TI U.K.

One of the key factors driving the gender pay gap in the technology sector is that the workforce is made up of substantially more men than women, and the pool of available female candidates is small. Attracting more women to STEM careers has been a longstanding focus at TI U.K. and Texas Instruments Incorporated worldwide. Visit TI.com to learn more.

TI U.K. remains focused on ensuring that all of our employees are rewarded equitably for their contributions to our business.

I can confirm that the data contained in this report is accurate and has been calculated in accordance with the requirements of the Equality Act 2010 (Gender Pay Gap Information) Regulations 2017.
