Novo Nordisk now pays women more than men, according to a recent analysis by Deloitte, highlighting a significant shift in wage equality. The study, which examined 21 of the 25 most traded companies in Denmark, revealed that women at Novo Nordisk earn three percent more than their male counterparts across all job levels, titles, and geographic locations.

This contrasts sharply with the national average, where Danish women typically earn 12.3 percent less than men, according to Statistics Denmark.

The pharmaceutical company attributes this achievement to its policy of reviewing salaries every three months. This practice ensures that employees receive fair compensation regardless of background, gender, or ethnicity, as long as they hold similar roles and responsibilities.
