Diversity at Contact Energy

Industry leading maternity leave policies.

We have multiple networks, women's, pride , maori & pasifika and many more networks. There is a very good benefit for primary carer (6 months flexible working, childcare koha, 3 months free energy and many more).

Every graduate cohort now has at minimum a 50:50 split men and women. 6mo paternity leave at full pay.

There's a pasifika network, women's network and LGBTIQA+ network. There are often fundraisers to support issues relating those 3 communities as well. You can also see the diversity in gender, and race just coming into the office.

Good employee networks, biculturalism awareness, commitment to decreasing gender pay gap, great maternity leave programme

Somewhat diverse, as in people of different backgrounds work here at Hydro (American, Australian, British, Scottish, Irish, Indian, Pacific). Not sure about LGBT but based on attitudes I think people would be accepting of them. Women who work here are awesome, but we do not have a large number of them in terms of overall workforce percentages.

The company is very welcoming and open to diversity, and this is reflected in factors such as the large range of ethnicities in the workforce.

The part of the business that Im in is incredibly diverse especially for engineering. The company is one of the first to get things such as the rainbow tick is very focused on wellbeing and has probably the best parental leave system in the country

Commitment to a diverse workforce. Teams are a good range of people cultures and personalities. Really good maternity plan set up also.

The company is planning to start an apprenticeship for people who did not finish high school.

Advertises widely and encourages people to apply if they are passionate about a role, even if they think they might not have the required experience.

Scholarships are offered to interns
