Women in engineering
In India, a group of our engineers have inspired the next generation of women in STEM by mentoring colleagues, showcasing career opportunities for women during college roadshows, and partnering with schools to boost career mentoring for girls.
Highlights of local STEM initiatives
Our colleagues in the UK have delivered safety and inclusion workshops to over 200 leaders. The workshops helped raise awareness about the challenges our employees face in their working lives, and provided tools to support our leaders as active allies. An example is a menopause guide to break biases on the topic and support employees and line mangers.
We want to motivate women and girls to choose an education in STEM, helping them see it is both an exciting and rewarding pathway. To that end, we collaborate with the annual national event in Denmark known as Girls’ Day in Science, as well as engage students in our work. For example, we welcomed 260 students from STEM educations to our annual Student Day events in our Copenhagen and Aarhus offices, and hosted the innovation contest Science Cup at our Esbjerg office.
Across our organisation, we continue to expand our work to attract and retain women in engineering roles. This entails partnering with professional networks such as: The Fest Hub and IntoUniversity, which support students from underprivileged backgrounds getting into STEM careers and higher education; and our corporate partnership with the National Society of Black Engineers, in the US.
“Biases experienced by early-career women are enormously detrimental and impact talent retention. We must bring it to the surface and tackle it head on” - Philippa Spence, Managing Director, UK
