Pride isn’t a one month event, it is a continuous commitment to ensure our policies and workplaces are inclusive for the LGBTQ+ community.
At Sonova, we focused on inclusivity for the LGBTQ+ community this year. We not only showed visual signs of support by raising the pride flags in front of our buildings, we ensured that the campaign was far reaching. In a series of educational webinars, we partnered with an NGO focused on the LGBTQ+ community, where we discussed inclusive language, inclusive policy making and allyship. Our colleagues from the OutLoud Network shared their experiences and the changes they would like to see in different webinar series which led to our internal systems being changed to include inclusive pronouns. Additional learnings are to be taken up in our future discussions around D&I and we will continue to build on the progress we have made in the past year.
