Be yourself! We believe in you and would like you to be able to develop with us. We regard diversity, equal opportunities and inclusion as crucial success factors. And different perspectives as an enriching and creative resource.
Openness, respect, and appreciation of differences and similarities constitute essential characteristics of the way we work at AXA Switzerland. These principles help us to develop innovative solutions for our customers' expectations.
Diversity
Diversity is part of us – we reflect our society. Employees with different experiences and backgrounds are an important success factor for us and help us better understand our customers' needs and ultimately enable us to make a contribution to society. We therefore make every effort to continue promoting diversity in our teams and welcome applications from people of varying backgrounds.
Diversity is part of us – we reflect our customers
Equal opportunities
It's important to us to create equal opportunities. We therefore do our best to take individual circumstances into account and enable all employees to exploit their potential as much as possible. One of the goals we have set ourselves is to continually increase the proportion of women in management positions.
Offers and measures:
- Flexible work models: Choice between full-time and part-time, smart working
- Parental leave: 22 weeks fully paid maternity leave, 8 weeks fully paid leave for the other parent
- Family-friendly meeting times: Meetings in larger groups take place at AXA between 8:30 a.m. and 5 p.m.
- Parent coaching: The individual coaching offer from our partner Right Point in Zurich provides parents with practical tips and strategies for achieving a better work-life balance and promoting equality in partnerships
- Talent development: Sponsorship by members of the Executive Board and mentoring programs
Inclusion
We are doing all we can to create an inclusive and discrimination-free work environment. All our employees at AXA Switzerland should be respected, appreciated and have a sense of belonging. Regardless of age, disability, ethnic origin, gender, gender expression, gender identity, religion, sexual orientation, social origin or other characteristics.
Offers and measures:
- Various employee networks such as woman@axa and queer@axa
- Regular awareness-raising events and workshops on diversity, equity, and inclusion
- AXA Horizon: This program secures the know-how of employees aged 55+ through training opportunities, networking, and flexible work models – even after retirement. It reduces the loss of specialist knowledge due to retirement and promotes knowledge sharing and synergies for employees and AXA.
- Action plan for employees with disabilities
- Participation in Zurich Pride
Support in all life’s situations
Challenging situations and low points are part of life. Have you been thrown out of kilter due to health, private or professional difficulties? We support you with our own internal point of contact to help guide and advise our employees and managers. We also actively promote the reintegration of employees who would like to start working again after a long illness.
Offers and measures:
- Reintegration: We support employees who want to return to work after a long illness
- Caring for relatives: Care responsibilities often arise suddenly and unplanned for many employees. AXA grants up to three days’ leave per event (e.g. caring for a child, partner, or parent in the event of illness or accident) at full pay.
Our work model supports diversity
We firmly believe that it’s your contribution that matters – rather than the place where you actually make your contribution. We therefore provide all our employees with a working environment in which everyone feels comfortable and has the same opportunities: Smart Working.
We take it seriously
Diversity, equal opportunities and inclusion are important to us.
These and other labels emphasize our efforts in this regard:
