Establishment of Workforce Engagement Committee and changes to
Board Committee Composition
16 June 2021
Flutter is pleased to announce the establishment of a new
Committee of the Board for the purposes of workforce engagement
(the "Workforce Engagement Committee") with effect from 15 June
2021.
Flutter has over 14,000 colleagues from 75 different
nationalities speaking 62 languages spread across five continents.
Flutter actively embraces the diverse perspectives inherent in our
global business. The establishment of the Workforce Engagement
Committee will provide the Board with a new mechanism for
engagement with its workforce. The Workforce Engagement Committee
will replace the Employee Voice Forum previously established by
Flutter for the purposes of employee engagement in accordance with
the recommendations of the 2018 UK Corporate Governance Code.
The aim of the Workforce Engagement Committee is to monitor and
facilitate workforce engagement within the Group in order to foster
a meaningful dialogue between Flutter and its employees. Through
the establishment of the Workforce Engagement Committee, Flutter
aims to enhance the Board's awareness of employee matters in the
context of the Board's decision-making process. The Workforce
Engagement Committee's duties will include, but are not limited to,
ensuring Flutter maintains appropriate workforce engagement
policies, processes and communication channels throughout each
division of the Group, encouraging participation in and evaluating
feedback received from workforce engagement initiatives, and
keeping fully informed on issues identified by employees and other
stakeholders as having a material impact on the Group's workforce
and communicating such issues to the Board.
Gary McGann, Chair, commented: "As a diverse international
Group, we recognise the important role our workforce plays in our
success. The establishment of the new Workforce Engagement
Committee will provide a clear mechanism for the Board to listen to
the views of our workforce and take account of these views in the
Board's decision-making process".
In addition, Flutter announces the following changes to the
membership of its Board Committees with effect from 15 June
2021:
(i) Holly Keller Koeppel has been appointed as a member of the
Audit Committee, Risk Committee and Nomination Committee;
(ii) Nancy Dubuc has been appointed as a member of the
Remuneration Committee and Nomination Committee;
(iii) Nancy Cruickshank has stepped down as a member of the
Audit Committee and has been appointed as a member of the
Nomination Committee; and
(iv) Mary Turner (Chair), Nancy Cruickshank, Nancy Dubuc,
Richard Flint and Gary McGann have been appointed as members of the
Workforce Engagement Committee.
