(Reuters) – Consumer goods company Unilever (LON:) said on Monday its board had decided to freeze CEO Hein Schumacher’s fixed pay for the next two years.
The board with a majority of 58% rejected a resolution to adopt Directors’ Remuneration Report (DRR) at the annual general meet of the maker of Dove soap and Ben & Jerry’s ice cream.
Schumacher, who took up the role in July, will not be eligible for a fixed pay increase in 2024 and 2025.

The compensation committee is reviewing his fixed pay level in 2026.
