Everyone is welcome to work with or at ZUID. But let's be honest: our profession and our team are not yet a prime example of diversity. We cannot solve this with nice words alone.
That is why ZUID is working on an organizsation-wide vision and a concrete action plan. Not to tick the boxes, but to make diversity and inclusion truly work for us, our people, and our customers.
Our approach:
- We're developing a practical and achievable DEI (Diversity, Equity and Inclusive culture) policy that is embedded in our culture.
- An internal task force ensures swift actions and builds towards a solid strategic policy.
- Where our knowledge ends, we call in external DEI experts.
What we are working towards
Awareness and training. We invest in programs that teach our team what diversity and inclusion really mean and what challenges they entail.
Recruitment. We actively seek out talent from different backgrounds and ensure a broad and fair recruitment process.
Equal opportunities and promotion. All our employees are given equal opportunities, regardless of their origin, gender, religion, sexual orientation, age, etc. We encourage growth and promotion based on competence and performance.
Culture. We're building a workplace where everyone feels heard and valued. We encourage open communication and take the necessary steps to reduce discrimination and prejudice.
Collaboration. We learn from and work with organisations and communities committed to diversity and inclusion, to learn from them and contribute to a more inclusive society.
We are open to suggestions
We're open to ideas and best practices. Do you have any suggestions? Please send a message to annemarieke@zuid.com or mathieu@zuid.com.
