Diversity & Inclusion

With over 15 million people, our UNIQA community thrives on diversity.

This includes our employees, customers, investors, and other stakeholders from numerous countries. Regardless of gender, age, origin, physical ability, sexual orientation, religion, world view or other differences, we value and respect each other. We are committed to the power of diversity and give no room to intolerance and exclusion. Therefore, at the UNIQA Group we focus on structured support measures for justice, equity, diversity and inclusion in our community and put people at the centre of all our efforts. This approach makes the UNIQA Group a place for personal growth, development and meaningful engagement. With us, everyone finds the right place to develop their full potential for the benefit of our customers, colleagues and the company. Living better together - for us, this credo is only credibly fulfilled when every gender, every nationality, every majority or minority in the UNIQA community has equal rights and the same opportunities.

Diversity & Inclusion Strategy

We rely on mutual trust and see each other not only in our professional roles but also as people in all their diversity. Our commitment to diversity is an expression of our humanity.

To make our comprehensive understanding visible, we have expanded our concept of diversity and inclusion to include fairness and equality (Justice, Equity, Diversity & Inclusion – JEDI).
Our JEDI Strategy forms the foundation and framework for all our activities, is an integral part of our strategic programme UNIQA 3.0, and is clearly aligned with our values, the Guiding Principles. It includes not only specific, measurable goals and a selection of initiatives but also four key focus areas. 

Key areas of the UNIQA strategy for 
Justice, Equality, Diversity & Inclusion: 

  • Equal pay for equal work (justice)
  • Increase the proportion of women in leadership positions (equality)
  • Focus on diversity and generation management (diversity) 
  • Support people with disabilities (inclusion) 

These and other measures are supported by a clear commitment in the form of various memberships and engagements, as well as consistent internal and external communication.

The UNIQA Strategy for Equity, Equality, Diversity & Inclusion
is based on three GUIDING principles

  • We promote diversity because it drives innovation and growth.
  • We live this diversity and continuously work on ourselves. 
  • We stand against intolerance and exclusion. 

Goals of the UNIQA Strategy for Equity, Equality, Diversity & Inclusion 

The following seven overarching goals have been defined:

  1. Equal pay for equal work. 
  2. Promotion of equal opportunities by increasing the proportion of women in leadership positions.
  3. Strengthening of generation management.
  4. Promotion of work-life balance.
  5. Using internationality and cultural diversity from all UNIQA countries as a strength.
  6. Inclusion and support of people with disabilities. 
  7. Respect for everyone’s sexual orientation and identity.
