Sony, Warner Bros & Turner Report Large Gender Pay Gaps And Sizable Bonus Differences In The UK

No surprises but definitely continuing to love that it's getting some sunshine, which is always for the better.

The UK operations of Hollywood studios Sony and Warner Bros as well as Turner have become the latest high-profile U.S. firms to find themselves with massive differences between what they pay men and women – particularly with bonus payments.

Sony, which posted the results as the Columbia Pictures Corporation, has found that it pays men on a mean basis 23.5% more than women and 15.2% on a median basis. This rises to 45.8% in terms of bonuses on a mean basis and 41.1% on a mean basis.

Warner Bros. Entertainment UK pays men 22.6% more than women on a mean basis and 30.9% on a median basis. Again, this increases to 67.3% in terms of bonuses on a median basis and 31.8% on a mean basis. The company, which has a number of high-profile film executives as well as a number of television production companies based in the UK, said this reflects that a greater number of men in senior management roles.
