    Actions not words

    We recognise that Axpo’s diverse team has a range of needs, and we seek to cater to these through attractive employment conditions. Axpo empowers everyone to develop and express themselves, both professionally and personally.

    We offer flexibility

    It’s important to us that our people can give their best at work every day, and that they feel empowered and safe to be true to themselves. We understand that every situation is unique and deserves flexibility and support. Axpo’s people enjoy part-time arrangements, flexible hours, opportunities to work from home and help with childcare costs.

    We enable all our people

    We know that the best solutions come from combining different viewpoints. Our networks for female executives and junior staff across all functions encourage discussion, development and mutual support. We also help our people to connect informally through Axpo’s Culture Club or Sports Club.

    We value gender diversity

    We’re a proud member of Advance, the leading business association for gender equality in Switzerland. In addition, we work closely with SVIN, the association for female engineers.

    We celebrate diversity

    We celebrate the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, as well as International Women’s Day. Marking occasions like these is just one way we take a clear stance on these thought-provoking topics.

    We commit to fair recruitment

    We recognise the role that diverse teams play in our company’s success and performance. That’s why we strive to be inclusive at every stage of the hiring process. Our recruiters get regular training to safeguard an unbiased and fair recruitment process for all.

    Work in progress

    We pledge to engage in dialogue and challenge ourselves continuously on what it means to prioritise diversity, inclusion and belonging. As we grow and develop, we’re committed to learning and evolving in this area and will continue to expand our diversity and inclusion initiatives.
