Pay gaps
Globally, there is an increased focus on pay gap reporting as many consider this to be a measure that promotes
a fairer and more equal society. Many countries have made the disclosure of pay gaps and the CEO pay ratio
obligatory. However, these are not yet obligatory in South Africa (SA). In 2020, the Committee approved a methodology
to track internal pay equity on a group, level, race and gender basis by country where we employ more than
250 employees on a permanent basis and where the data is available considering personal data privacy laws.
The Sasol Group pay gap methodology compares the median Total Target Remuneration (TTR) of 10% of the highest
Sasol earners per country with the median TTR of the lowest 10% Sasol earners per country. This is similar to the
methodology used in Form EEA4 which has to be submitted annually to the South African Department of Employment
STI:
• Energy efficiency improvement
• Sourcing of carbon credits
• Shifting to lower carbon products
and Green Hydrogen
• Renewable Energy sourcing strategy
• Progress opportunities to enable sustainable growth by
strengthening our technology, partnering and sustainability
solutions.
• Deliver optionality relating to flexible, sustainable feedstock
opportunities.
LTI:
• Reduction in scope 1 and 2 emissions
STI:
• Sales volumes
• Cash fixed costs
• Free cash flow/turnover
• Sustainable net working capital
• Capital expenditure
LTI:
• Return on Invested Capital > WACC +1%
for SA and the USA respectively
• Relative total shareholders’ return
to exceed peer group median
• Commitment to our Sasol 2.0 transformation program to enable
the business to be competitive, highly cash generative and able
to deliver attractive returns as well as accelerating a return to
dividends.
• Enhance operational discipline, efficiency and effectiveness, and
drive reliable feedstock supply and operations across all value
chains.
and Labour. Target remuneration rather than actual remuneration is used for year-on-year comparisons
as the impact of macroeconomic factors on the LTI in particular is excluded.
During 2022, the Committee reviewed the detailed level pay gap ratios, which showed a downward trend
in South Africa, Germany and Italy. In the US the pay gap ratio increased. This was attributed to Sasol’s divestiture
of a number of businesses which resulted in a transfer of a number of employees from Sasol.
The Committee also commissioned a gender pay equity analysis, and no systemic gender pay gaps were identified.
The Committee understands the importance of ensuring that the wages of our lowest paid employees are sufficient
to accommodate a decent standard of living. We will continue to track the pay gap from this perspective.
