Embracing a great variety of characteristics

- gender

- ways of thinking
- sexual orientation
- gender identity
- religious affiliation
- social background

Inclusion
Harnessing the power of diversity
Diversity alone is not enough. Inclusion is key to harnessing the power of diversity and the collective intelligence of teams.
To build an inclusive workplace, we strive to continuously improve our processes and practices. Our aim is to create the conditions in which everyone feels they belong, can be their authentic selves and reach their full potential – regardless of their background, identity or circumstances.
