We strive to be an inclusive workplace where you’re respected for who you are, valued for the unique perspectives you bring, and rewarded fairly for what you achieve. Ørsted wants all employees to have the same opportunities for impact and growth, no matter their age, race, ethnicity, place of birth, gender, sexual orientation or whether they have a disability.
To us, sustainability is more than a commitment to the environment. It’s also how we engage with and serve the communities to which we belong. Sustainability to us also means focusing on the social elements of our environment and creating an inclusive workplace for everyone.
We value diversity and inclusion, but success requires action. Our process is clear. We want all employees to feel valued. We want all of our systems, processes and ways of working to reinforce inclusion and fairness to support our diverse workforce. We want our company to reflect the communities we serve, so that we can take collective action.
We’re starting with a special focus on gender diversity, even though our ambition is to include all aspects of diversity. Why? Because it’s a proven driver of business value. And because research indicates that reducing bias in culture, systems, processes, and policies around gender may reduce biases overall to the benefit of other under-represented groups.
Externally, we’ve committed to meet specific gender ambitions.
Our ambition is 40 % women and 60 % men across Ørsted by 2030. We’ll track this at three levels: senior director and above; people managers; all employees. Where and when we can, we’ll seek to move farther and faster and go beyond gender.
This is an ambitious goal. It requires that we attract, recruit, develop, sponsor, engage, and include women at every level and step of the way. It requires us to revisit our culture and leadership values, to ensure they include behaviours that help women and everyone else to thrive.
