By championing diversity, living inclusion and promoting equal opportunities at Uniper, we enliven our day-to-day business and ensure our long-term success. Because Uniper can only develop its full potential if everyone can contribute their full potential without hindrance.
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) at Uniper
DEI is business - By embracing diversity, living and breathing inclusion, and fostering equity, we at Uniper make success possible and boost our business both for today and in the long term. It’s only when everybody can fulfil their full potential unhindered, that Uniper can reach its full potential.
Communities & initiatives
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.
A community to empower, support and celebrate women in senior leadership positions.
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.
A community for all those who identify as LGBTQ+ or consider themselves an ally providing a supportive internal network and opportunities to recognize and celebrate LGBTIQ+ history and culture and to continuously grow in terms of visibility, awareness, sharing, and collaboration and gain outside-in perspectives.
We believe in the power of ambassadors because it 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 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.
Development & benefits
Job sharing
With job sharing, Uniper not only relies on a modern division of tasks in a duo but also offers more flexibility for individuals to respond to individual or family life situations, as well as to career changes that require more flexibility. We experience that the close cooperation of the tandem partners brings considerable added value compared to pure part-time work, such as intensive teamwork and consequently the promotion of team spirit in the entire team or the opportunity to develop communication skills and leadership competencies through a constant exchange with the partner.
With mentoring and reverse mentoring, we support our employees in identifying new perspectives and possible solutions through advice and the exchange of experiences, regardless of the role. Through an integrated mentoring solution, we foster this type of informal learning partnership with experienced individuals to strengthen personal competencies and advance career development.
#evolve is our company-wide, international potential development program for employees at Uniper. The program supports the development of our future game changers in leadership positions as well as in exceptional project or expert roles so that they can accelerate the energy transition and successfully lead our company into the future.
We accompany our leaders on their personal development path with a wide range of offerings both in taking on a new leadership role and in living this role in the spirit of the Uniper Way and refining their personal leadership vision or, for example, acting as an integrative leader and role model, meeting the challenges of digital transformation as a leader, or practicing mindful and healthy leadership.
In our Uniper Way, we have defined how we want to work together as individuals, in teams and across our organisation.
At Uniper, we offer a wide range of attractive additional benefits and promote the personal and professional development of our employees. Especially attractive is our model of FlexWork. Flexible working at Uniper means that our teams decide for themselves how, when and where they work. We have created hubs for collaboration and networking in our offices and we provide our employees with the equipment for a modern and healthy workplace at home. We also offer geographical flexibility and various flexible working models. This means you can do your work from different locations and shape your job to fit your personal lifestyle, so you can balance your work and private life perfectly.
