GE’s 2022 Workforce Representation Data
GE is a global company: Sixty-six percent of our employees are based outside of the United States and our workforce represents nationalities from ~170 countries.
The data shared is representative of GE’s workforce on December 31, 2022. In 2021, we have expanded the data that we report to now be inclusive of employee voluntary self-identification data for disability (U.S.) and U.S. veteran status, as well as equitable pay results related to gender globally and U.S. underrepresented minorities for each GE business segment. The workforce representation data for gender globally and U.S. race and ethnic minority now includes the percent change from the prior year’s comparable data.

Inclusive of Corporate functions, Digital, Capital, International Markets, and Global Research.
United States Data
GE Corporate also includes GE Research, International Markets, Global Operations, and Digital employees.
*Data from our EEO-1 Component 1 Report (EEO-1 Report) is available here. The EEO-1 Report mandates the use of specific job categories, which differ from how our workforce is structured. While we are making data from our EEO-1 Report available, we believe our Diversity Annual Report more accurately speaks to our current representation data, progress, and aspirations to support inclusion and diversity globally.
Equal Pay for All
At GE, we are proud of our long-standing commitment to fair and competitive pay practices. On average, men and women performing similar work are paid within a half of percent of each other in each GE business. Being transparent about our progress is a critical component to driving a more inclusive culture and helping us attract and retain top talent.
Based on 2022 Salary Data
Our pay equity results include gender and U.S. underrepresented minorities performing similar work. For example, in our Aerospace business, women make on average 100% of what men make. Furthermore, U.S. underrepresented minorities make on average 101% of what non-underrepresented minorities make.
