At KPMG we want an environment where everyone can thrive. Inclusion, diversity and equity are important to us and we focus on five key areas – gender, LGBTQ+, ethnicity, disability and socio-economic.
When it comes to gender, we want to support women’s career progression because we know that diversity of leadership leads to better results for our teams, our clients, and our community. That’s why we’ve set an ambition for 50% of new partner promotions to be women from 2023. We’re building on our existing gender equity programmes with our new Gender Action Plan to support women’s progress at KPMG.
Our plan includes a suite of new lifecycle supports (e.g. fertility, surrogacy, menopause, etc.), emergency childcare, and a paid ramp up initiative for women returning from maternity leave, as well as other initiatives. Check out this video to learn more.
