For the fourth consecutive year, Kearney, a global management consultancy headquartered in America, has been awarded the WGEA Employer of Choice for Gender Equality citation. This underpinning measurement continues Kearney’s commitment to achieving the highest level of gender equality in the workplace, especially in Australia, which accepts this highly valued award citation.
The WGEA citation is considered one of the highest regarded business accreditations and is given to companies that have met strict criteria in the implementation of gender equality. These awarded companies demonstrate exemplary performance on many fronts of business operations, from leadership and employee development to remuneration equity and enabling flexibility of work practices. Renewing this citation is a strong encouragement for Kearney to keep up the work in fostering a working environment where gender parity is first among the list of priorities.
Ever since becoming the Employer of Choice in 2021, Kearney has shown itself to be an organization committed to gender equality. The constant commitment of the firm toward inclusiveness is testified by its intensive leadership development in making sure all the employees get an equal chance to grow. This is reinforced by a firm resolve to achieve pay equity or equal pay, which guarantees that the irrespective sex is equally compensated for their invaluable support to the organization.
EOCGE recognition is not only a testimonial for the internal policies at Kearney—but leadership in promoting gender equality across the broader business landscape in Australia. This makes the firm one of the only 115 companies in receiving the EOCGE Award and one of the leaders in creating fair and diverse workplaces.
The WGEA citation is awarded based on stringent criteria, which include, but are not limited to, the support companies show for employees in relation to flexible arrangements for work, the development of leadership pipelines for women, and how it addresses and works to minimize gender remuneration gaps. Attaining this citation again confirms Kearney’s leadership in the sphere of gender equality.
In short, the renewal of the WGEA Employer of Choice for Gender Equality citation maintains the commitment of Kearney toward a diverse and inclusive workforce. This is not just a testament to what the company has done regarding gender equality but also setting a precedence for the rest to follow to promote work inclusivity.
