The ranking celebrates organisations who've demonstrated a commitment to changing and transforming the experience women have in the workplace. 

Any UK employer can apply to be on the list providing they're transparent about the causes and impact of gender inequality in their workplace and provide details of how they're working towards reducing such disparity. 

If a career working for an organisation who's committed to changing the prospects for women at work is important to you, you'll be pleased to hear that a selection of The Times Top 50 Employers for Women are hiring graduates right now - check them out below.
