Diversity

KPMG Finland’s gender balance was 54/46 female/male (January 2022) and the distribution has remained the same for several years. In January 2022, KPMG had 41 employees with non-Finnish citizenship (26 nationalities). There are around 3 % of employees who are not native Finnish speakers. Within KPMG Finland we evaluate annually the state of Inclusion and Diversity throughout employee surveys, statistics analysis and review of people related processes. Based on the evaluation we choose focus areas that we want to emphasize on in order to improve and promote inclusion and diversity within our organization and work community. During 2020-2021 we have set up an Inclusion & Diversity-steering group, created internal I&D-pages and started our strategic I&D-work for FY22. The strategic focus areas for the year 2022-2023 are; equal opportunities, we strive to increase the culture of inclusion, the diversity of the work community, and the psychological safety of our people.

Priorities and actions to be taken in years 2022-2023 are supporting and enhancing inclusion with integrating diversity perspectives into personnel processes and investing to internal communication in Finnish and English. Also equal opportunities for career development such as development of family-friendly practices in connection with the reform of the Family Leave Act., raising awareness and understanding in leadership and interaction, career development support and anonymous recruitment pilot will be the focus areas.
