DIVERSITY & INCLUSION AT EBLINGER & PARTNER

SINCE THE BEGINNING OF 2024, WE AT EBLINGER & PARTNER HAVE BEEN OFFERING AN ESG-COMPLIANT SEARCH AND SELECTION PROCESS IN LINE WITH THE SUPPLY CHAIN ACT.

From 2024, European companies (depending on size, turnover and number of employees) are obliged to submit a sustainability report with their annual financial statements. In this report, they give an account of their improvements in the areas of ESG - Environment, Social and Compliance.

This includes not only internal improvements, processes and structures, but also the extent to which suppliers are also committed to a positive ESG balance sheet. In line with the Supply Chain Act, suppliers therefore contribute to improving their customers' sustainability reports.

Eblinger & Partner - as a supplier in the search & selection of employees - offers an ESG-compliant process. The main focus here is on the diversity & inclusion of existing employees and candidates. In 2023, we revised our processes and documents and trained all employees so that we can now offer this expertise to our customers.

WHAT IS AN ESG-COMPLIANT SEARCH AND SELECTION PROCESS?

• Advice and training for customers on the correct procedure for diverse recruitment
• Tenders and advertisements are formulated and designed diversely
• Competency-based interview questions
• Candidate reports without stating the current salary, but only future salary expectations (in line with the EU Gender Pay Gap Transparency Directive)
• Gendering in the language
• Presentation of various candidates in the shortlist
• Advice on the decision to choose diverse candidates
