We’re passionate about creating an organisation where people can be themselves and make a meaningful contribution to our customers and the community, every day. We know that the differences in the backgrounds, skillsets, experiences and perspectives of our people is vital to our ongoing success and reflects the uniqueness of the communities that we live and work in. Our people are proud to work at Rabobank and we continue to strive to create an inclusive and equitable culture which allows all of our people feel that they belong.
At Rabobank New Zealand we’re building a workplace that is equitable, diverse and inclusive. As part of our focus on pay equity, we continue to work towards closing our gender pay gap.
We use two measurements to help us better understand and explain the underlying reasons for differences in pay - the gender pay gap and the pay equity gap. The gender pay gap helps provide an understanding of high-level indicators on the difference between women and men’s earnings, as well as the benefits of pay and employment equity. The pay equity gap compares the average pay of women and men doing the same or similar roles at Rabobank New Zealand.
Our Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Strategy is underpinned by three strategic goals:
Understanding our 'why'
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion as a performance enabler.
Building an Inclusive Culture
Inclusion takes everyone.
Creating room at the table
Support underrepresented groups to have a 'seat at the table'.
