Nine law firms have been named in The Times’ Top 50 list of best employers for women.
Employers are judged on what they do internally for women members of staff and what it does externally to promote gender equality and diversity.
The firms who are listed include: Freshfields, Herbert Smith Freehills, Hogan Lovells, Norton Rose Fulbright, Olswang and Simmons & Simmons.
Law Society chief executive Catherine Dixon said: “It is excellent that a record number of law firms make it on The Times' top 50 list of best employers for women.”
This will come as welcome news to an industry that has previously come under fire in the equal pay debate.
