We have adopted a 'Global diversity and inclusion policy' which emphasises equal opportunities for all employees at Ørsted. We specifically call out identities such as ethnic background, race, religion, age, gender, disability, sexual orientation, outlook, or social status because these groups have been historically marginalised or disadvantaged (protected characteristics). By embedding these principles in the way we do business, we promote an environment where all employees can thrive and contribute to our collective success.
