British one pound coins
FTSE 100 bosses will have been paid as much money by noon today as ordinary workers in Britain can expect to be paid in a year.
The High Pay Centre (HPC), which monitors pay disparities between bosses and workers, says the best-paid 100 chief executive officers have had to work less than three days of 2025 to surpass the annual pay of the average worker.
HPC’s damning report, issued today, estimates the top bosses’ median annual salary to be £4.22 million (excluding pension contributions), 113 times the median full-time worker’s pay of £37,430.
