Latest updates from 2023
- We introduced a toolkit to help employees and leaders make our workplace more accessible for everyone. The toolkit offers guidance on physical accessibility, tech accessibility, and everyday behaviour that makes our environment inclusive for employees with disabilities.
- We kept working on increasing the share of women in executive and managerial positions through targeted development programmes for women and with our ‘Female Spotlight Initiative’, which prepares women for senior leadership positions.
- We set up a new training programme that helps participants create an equitable and inclusive workplace.
- “Ørsted IN”, a global hub for our inclusion networks, continued its work. The hub has channels for anyone identifying with a specific group or serving as an ally supporting equality and inclusion. It provides psychologically safe communities for members to share ideas or seek advice.
- Current active networks include Race and Ethnicity IN, Gender IN, Disability IN, LGBTQ+ IN, and 50+ IN.
- We’re committed to ensuring equal pay for equal positions and competences when hiring or promoting employees. We conduct an annual gender pay gap report for all the countries where we operate with more than 250 employees.
What’s next?
We aim to integrate our DE&I efforts into structures beyond our workforce and strengthen processes and practices that promote diversity in all its forms.
We’ll continue to diversify our pool of talent, find ways to include more diverse businesses into our supply chains, and increase our equity efforts.
