At Societe Generale Group, Diversity & Inclusion are at the very heart of our mission to “Building together, with our customers, a better and sustainable future by providing responsible and innovative financial solutions”.

Our wish is to be a company where employees feel comfortable to be who they want to be, reflecting the diversity of the customers we serve and the society we wish to contribute to in a positive way.

Societe Generale has therefore strengthened its commitments in this area, by taking a series of concrete actions over the past 2 years and particularly in the following areas:

• Supporting the career and professional development of high-potential women and international employees;
• LGBT+ inclusion;
• Support parents in the workplace;
• Fighting against all forms of discrimination in the workplace;
• Strengthening “equal pay” indicators to ensure a fair and equitable remuneration policy.

To steer and accelerate the deployment of these actions, the Group has also created

a Diversity & Inclusion Committee, made up of members from the Management Committees of all its Business Units and Service Units.

The EVE programme forms an integral part of our drive to strengthen our Diversity & Inclusion policy. By offering participants both the opportunity to be inspired but also to pause and reflect, it enables them to build the skills required to become enlightened leaders. The programme encourages participants to become active players in creating an open and diverse world, where every individual’s uniqueness is celebrated.

EVE provides a unique experience where peers who share the same views on inclusive leadership can listen and exchange – and deliver change, so that everyone’s has a place.
