Our three core values – care, courage, and collaboration – guide inclusive behaviors in our workplace.

Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging are about all of us contributing to the work environment we want to be part of and inviting diverse voices and perspectives.

Hydro offers an internal online course in diversity, inclusion, and belonging to employees to increase awareness.

We have initiated a mentor program in the company headquarters in Oslo in which employees can volunteer to be matched with immigrants through the organization Sammen Om En Jobb (Together For A Job).

The program acknowledges that many immigrants are employed in jobs that do not match their skills. This is not only disadvantageous for the immigrants, but businesses miss out on an opportunity to benefit from these skills and diverse experiences.

We also have begun surveying employees about their opinions and experiences in diversity, inclusion, and belonging in order to gain input for our policies and actions.
