In 2024, 23 graduates were part of our Global Graduate Programme, which offers young professionals opportunities to develop their personal and professional skills over a two-year journey across our entire global organisation. Talent retention efforts are focused on the business areas with the highest turnover rates. For those areas impacted by higher turnover rates, we have developed strategic initiatives to address specific challenges.

Demant aims to achieve a top-third level of employee engagement by 2030, corresponding to the 67th percentile or above in the Gallup engagement index. In 2024, Demant received 11 submissions to its whistleblower hotline related to discrimination and/or harassment. These cases were handled internally according to the Whistleblower Policy and Investigation Guideline. Having been addressed by the relevant internal organisation in collaboration with the affected individuals, 8 out of 11 claims have been closed. There were no severe human rights incidents in the period, and therefore no fines, penalties or compensation were paid.
