Part two

Our work for equality and against discrimination 

To recruit a greater degree of diversity, our recruitment processes must ensure that they are more neutral and freer from prejudice.

In 2024, we revised our recruitment process to ensure the same process regardless of the candidate and introduced tools such as Alva Labs to increase awareness of bias and be more data-driven.

We continue to offer language training to those whose mother tongue is not Norwegian, and that we offer English courses for those who want to improve their skills, as English is introduced as our business language. By introducing English as a business language, it has given us better access to a diversity of talent.

Increase the number of women in leadership positions

The group continues to run internal leadership development programmes. 2024 program had 16 participants 10 women and 6 men with representation from all departments

Equal pay for equal work

We will utilise our HR solution to address this initiative, ensuring adherence to the principle of equal pay for equal work. Our ongoing efforts include conducting internal analyses of pay gaps and equity, supplemented by external benchmarking. In 2024, the Group collaborated with AON – Human Capital Analytics to further enhance our understanding and approach to pay equity.

Facilitate development opportunities through internal mobility

Internal mobility continues to be an important strategy to meet the organisation’s needs for an adaptive and dynamic workforce, and a way to promote employees' career development through bringing out the potential in everyone.

During 2024, 17 employees (10% - where of 7 females and 10 male) had the opportunity to take part of an internal mobility transfer. By fostering a culture that values and supports internal mobility, we can lay the foundation for sustainable success and growth that strengthens our competitiveness and secures jobs. This is central in a changing market, with partly a lack of crucial expertise, especially in Tech, which is one of our main focus areas.

We maintain zero tolerance for bullying and harassment

In 2024, we had no incidents of bullying and harassment.
