An inclusive corporate culture unlocks value and fosters innovation and resilience.
We put people’s wellbeing first. It’s only when everybody can fulfil their full potential unhindered, that Uniper can reach its full potential.
By embracing diversity, living and breathing inclusion, and fostering equity, we make success possible and boost our business both for today and in the long term.
Diversity is important to us because different perspectives on daily life and work help us to challenge the status quo and to take innovative paths.
Equity makes Uniper a fairer place and increases everybody’s involvement in our success; thus, strengthens us as a team.
Inclusion at Uniper makes us feel valued for what we have to give and feel welcomed for who we are - anywhere and anytime.
Our ambition: create the best possible environment for our employees.
Every day, we strive to create a work atmosphere that embraces differences and in which all employees feel respected, comfortable, and included in their team.
We value that diversity encourages new perspectives, creativity, reflection, and innovation, all of which are crucial to our success.
We foster an open corporate culture because we want to reflect societal change and provide professionals with the attractive work environment that brings out the best in them.
We rely on our employees, because DEI can only be successfully implemented if everyone actively contributes to its design and implementation, senior management and employees alike.
Advancing DEI along strategic action fields - internally and externally.
DEI is sustainable - That’s why we include Diversity, Equity and Inclusion in every facet of our company and bring it to all divisions, functions and locations. And we encourage current and future employees as well as company partners and vendors to take part. Because the more diversity in the voices that speak, the better we become at solving problems - individually and as a competitive company. DEI is part of our DNA. And it’s here to stay.
Our commitment starts with a clear strategy.
Our diversity at Uniper is a variety of talents, mindsets, perspectives, qualities, abilities, and attributes of our employees and business partners.
Our individual differences make our company strong and more successful - both the visible differences, e.g. gender or age; as well as invisible differences, e.g. experiences, values, education, sexual orientation, or religious background.
We empower our employees to live DEI at work.
We offer seminars and learning opportunities, coaching and job rotations, as well as IT tools to promote inclusiveness.
Our employees have access to several DEI learning collections and can participate in our growing offer of DEI e-learnings and classroom trainings.
We believe in the power of mentoring, reverse mentoring and coaching. Job-sharing and job-rotation open new opportunities to develop.
We reduce barriers and improve accessibility on our platforms, in our tools and meeting culture.
Moving from awareness to action and holding ourselves accountable to do better.
We believe in the power of ambassadors. We know from experience that a DEI ambassador network is a great way to raise awareness, and to engage and support colleagues.
Our 50+ ambassadors from across the whole company foster a culture of belonging because they are curious, compassionate, open-minded, active listeners, aware of their own unconscious biases, and actively working to reduce them.
In short, they do amazing work by role modelling an inclusive mindset and behavior and are crucial for our goal of bringing DEI into every corner of the organization.
Gender equality and fair leadership start with empowerment. The community enables an exchange among women at Uniper and connects colleagues on topics in the areas of personal and professional development.
Being a parent and carer can be a challenging experience in life. The community serves as a platform to stay connected and get impulses about job sharing, flexible working, home office, child care or elder care.
Being proud of who you are is crucial. A supportive network for the LGBTIQ+ community provides opportunities to recognize and celebrate their history and culture.
Celebrating and honouring cultural heritage & history and all ethnicities. Platform to share experiences and promote understanding and appreciation across our organization.
Platform for neurodivergent people and their allies to share their experience, support each other, promote awareness and deepen the understanding of the different facets of neurodiversity.
