DEI dashboard
Since the launch of our WOMEN@AGC initiative in 2010, AGC Glass Europe has made significant progress in promoting diversity and inclusion. In 2022, the company took a crucial step by introducing its first DEI Dashboard. Based on key performance indicators (KPIs), it enables to track progress in key areas such as gender diversity, pay gaps and the representation of diverse nationalities.
AGC Glass Europe wants to create an environment where everyone feels valued and respected and can develop their unique talents. Using the DEI Dashboard, the causes of any differences/gaps are analysed and taken seriously. The management is committed to improving these indicators with initiatives to be found and taken. The Dashboard will be updated every six months and information and new initiatives will be shared and tracked for all members of the organisation.
DE&I Circles
To encourage concrete actions, several DE&I circles were established in eight different sites across Europe, both in architectural and automotive plants. Video’s were made to proclaim the DEI status and objectives. First to measure and improve HR processes to achieve the vision and increase awareness within the company and have management involved.
The first internal DEI Convention took place bringing representatives from the above mentioned DEI circles together to share ideas and experiences, to discuss new actions, to create a strong community united by a common goal, to advance the company on the path of DEI. Each DEI circle will locally implement best practices, share thoughts and ideas, and work on possible action plans relating to recruitment, well-being and assuring diversity, equity and inclusion behavior.
