Pioneering work has an impact because we put our principles into practice. Our success proves us right.

Equality between women and men has been a stated goal at DORDA for many years. We recognized the potential of women's advancement in the legal industry early on and integrated it into our corporate strategy. We deliberately make our project teams diverse in order to demonstrably achieve better results. Equal opportunities at all levels are part of our corporate culture and are at the heart of the women@DORDA initiative. This support and mentoring program for women is continuously evaluated and expanded.

A separate management agenda keeps the topic of equal opportunities in focus at all career levels. In a 360° review, partners at DORDA are assessed on how successfully they are implementing equality in their teams. Currently around 50% of attorneys and around 55% of associates working at DORDA are female. The principle of equal payment has been implemented completely.

The next step: increase the number of female partners.

Milestones achieved and new goals: equality at all career levels, further expansion and flexibilization of re-entry and part-time models, as well as parental leave solutions for partners, attorneys and associates, further development of mentoring programs, active establishment of networks and making them accessible, initiation of events and successful implementation with cooperation partners.

Our track record: Awarded "Firm of the Year" and "Talent Management Firm of the Year" for Austria at the Women in Business Law Awards 2021.

There is still plenty to do for true equality. We continue to pursue this aim consistently.
