Gender diversity
We aim to be the employer of choice for women in the legal sector and to meet our target of 40:40:20.
Diversity, equity and inclusion
Diversity, equity and inclusion is a critical business issue at Norton Rose Fulbright in Australia.
We value difference and appreciate the variety of perspectives that this brings to our business. We know that if our people are able to be themselves at work, they are more engaged and productive.
We aim to create an inclusive culture where every individual can bring their whole self to work and have a sense of belonging.
Our approach to diversity, equity and inclusion
We base our approach to diversity, equity and inclusion on six key pillars:
Cultural diversity
We are committed to creating a more culturally and linguistically diverse workforce to mirror the communities within which we do business.
LGBTIQ+ inclusion
We work hard to ensure we have an inclusive culture that supports our LGBTIQ+ colleagues and ensures they have a sense of belonging at Norton Rose Fulbright.
Disability confidence
We aim to remove barriers and challenges for people living with disability both through the recruitment process, at interview, and as employees. We aim to be a disability confident organisation where adjustments can be made to ensure everyone can reach their full potential.
Family and those with caring responsibilities
We have an inclusive parental leave policy and program to ensure everyone can access the generous benefits when becoming a parent. In addition we have a focus on people performing a range of other caring roles and aim to support our people through the Carers Network and other initiatives.
Standing together
As a firm, we will always stand together against racism, bigotry and brutality. We say clearly that racism and discrimination of any kind has no place in society, and not in the global community that is our firm.
Recognition
We are proud of the recognition we receive for our focus on diversity, equity and inclusion in Australia.
