In April 2023, Credendo became a member of Wo·Men in Finance. This organisation was created in 2019 with the aim of accelerating gender balance at all levels within the financial sector.
Why did Credendo become a member?
Through this membership, Credendo wants to further strengthen its inclusive and diverse working environment, in which everyone is able to achieve their full potential. As you can read in our CSR report, supporting social and sustainable projects is important to us. Furthermore, one of our core values is to pay special attention to the mix of different cultures, experiences and backgrounds within our own organisation. It is also part of the Credendo Cares programme, which has been in place since a long time. It is for good reasons that we have earned the Leading Employer Quality Label.
Wo·Men in Finance will help us position ourselves even better in terms of diversity and inclusion.
By becoming a member, we are committing to:
- measuring glass ceilings within Credendo;
- sharing our gender progression at different levels and gender equality initiatives with Wo·Men in Finance;
- participating in the advisory board of Wo·Men in Finance.
Being a member gives us access to:
- 10 yearly workshops organised by Wo·Men in Finance on various themes, ranging from how to use AI inclusively and how to start employee resource groups, to sexism prevention or inclusive job offers;
- free consultancy services such as in-house training or presentations, adaptation of job offers to make them more inclusive, a review of our gender KPIs, etc.;
- our own benchmarking report with personalised advice, comparing our gender results with those of the sector;
- a Febelfin toolbox with 25 tools to improve inclusion.
Credendo is proud to have achieved significant gender diversity. Our workforce is made up of a balanced mix of men and women, with a total of 50.6% women across all subsidiaries. This result is not just a statistic for us. It demonstrates our commitment to equity and inclusion.
