Support & celebrate

We believe in equal opportunity and advancement in employment for everyone, regardless of gender. To create gender balance, we loudly and proudly support and celebrate women, men, transgender and gender-diverse people in our workplace by providing:

  • more career opportunities for women in senior leadership roles
  • encouraging women to explore a variety of career paths, particularly in fields traditionally dominated by men, such as trades and STEM
  • unconscious bias awareness training for all employees
  • peer mentorship and leadership training opportunities
  • an environment where all people feel safe.
