Targets related to hiring, promotions, and turnover (voluntary and involuntary), and gender division for departments are monitored regularly.
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) are integral to Heimstaden Bostad.
In 2023, a Diversity Board was established to bring new perspectives to Group Management and challenge the work with Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging. The board meets monthly to discuss and advise on actions to make the workplace more inclusive.
As part of our social sustainability roadmap, we aim to provide 240 inclusive job opportunities each year to young people and those far from the labour market.
Fair pay and compensation levels in line with market salary is essential to attract and retain talent. Annual salary benchmarks, gender pay gap analyses and salary reviews are used to ensure this.Â
People development is critical to remain successful as a company. Mandatory trainings for all employees are crucial to be compliant within relevant risk areas, such as the Code of Conduct, Cyber/IT Security, GDPR and Anti-Bribery and Corruption (ABC). Leadership programmes and function-specific training are offered across the company. Reflect & Act sessions are performed regularly between Manager and Employee to discuss performance, targets, and development needs.
