Compensation
Grupo SURA has a competitive compensation policy aimed at attracting and retaining top talent, within the framework of the "Total Compensation" concept. This approach seeks to balance fixed remunerations, benefits, and short and long-term incentives for its employees, ensuring alignment with the company's strategy.
Annual compensation for top executives
Fixed: 60%
Variable: 40%
Variable compensation is part of the total compensation of the CEO and the Executive Committee. It is made up of short-term and long-term incentives, both tied to financial performance indicators and sustainability metrics. As of 2021, our sustainability goals have greater relevance in the evaluation in order to carry out a comprehensive review of compliance with the Company’s strategy.
In Grupo SURA, this compensation is paid as follows: 60% in cash and 40% in shares. For values generated in shares, a clause applies in which they are not made effective in the event of dismissal of the employee for issues related to fraud or fraudulent action.

Wage gap
Equal pay is guaranteed for the same level of position regardless of the gender of the person who occupies the level and position.
We have an increased salary policy in an equitable and transparent system for salary allocation.
Working conditions and benefits are the same for all employees regardless of level or gender. There is no wage discrimination.
32.92% Global mean (average) raw gender pay gap Grupo SURA This gap is because women occupy positions in the company that receive lower salaries. Therefore, this figure shows vertical segregation (women are concentrated in lower-level positions, while men are concentrated in higher-level positions).
When analyzing the gap by position level, it is concluded that the gap is impacted by the number of male or female occupants at the levels and its historical evolution demonstrates the changes in the gender composition at each level.
Action plan to close gender pay gap
- *Training on gender equality and unconscious bias
Provide training to employees and pay decision makers (leaders) on gender equality and unconscious bias. This helps raise awareness of gender biases and stereotypes that can influence salary and promotion decisions and foster a culture of equality and fairness.
- * Review criteria in selection processes to mitigate gender biases, especially at manager and higher levels that may suggest a glass ceiling for women.
