DIVERSITY, EQUITY & INCLUSION

Be yourself, we all belong

Last reviewed and updated: April, 2023

Turium is an innovation-driven company, and diversity is at the root of innovation. On our platforms, a staggering number of different teams and people collaborate. We need to build our products and run our business in a way that reflects the diverse communities we serve. That means it’s essential for our workforce internally to reflect the diversity that exists on our platform, and for us to cultivate an environment where that diversity thrives and where people feel they belong and can contribute to our shared success.

Diversity is about differences. At Turium, we think about differences broadly, across a wide range of dimensions, such as nationality, language, education, gender and gender identity/expression, sexual orientation, generation, age, socioeconomic background, religious background, abilities and disabilities, as well as identity dimensions defined and constructed by some societies in ethnic, colour, cultural, or racial terms. There are also differences according to working and thinking styles, experiences, career paths, technical skills, geography, service line, sector and function.

Equity is about recognising that everyone has different starting points and different needs. Based on their backgrounds and identities, everyone faces different levels of structural and systemic advantages and disadvantages that impact access to resources, perception and evaluation, and sense of belonging in and out of the workplace. At Turium, we have a specific commitment to advancing social equity. This includes working to remove barriers that impede equal outcomes across different backgrounds and identities — and proactively, continually addressing environments that do not support an inclusive experience for everyone. Turium is committed to providing the tools, resources and environment that all Turium professionals need to be successful and build meaningful careers.

Inclusiveness is about leveraging our differences, where everyone experiences a sense of belonging and feels safe to surface many aspects of who they are and bring forward their perspectives and ideas.

Turium is committed to driving the strategy, policies and accountability to build and sustain a diverse global workforce, equitable processes and systems, and an inclusive environment where everyone can contribute their best in every encounter. This includes the executive leadership level. As such, we will strive to ensure that the broad range of differences across Turium globally are represented and respected at the most senior levels within the organisation, including in all appointments it makes.

Our vision at Turium is for every person to use their unique experiences, abilities and backgrounds, together – to spark solutions that make them who they are and create a more progressive and positive world.

CARE: Community, Accountability, Respect, Empathy

Turium is a diverse group of people who care about technology, who care about the environment, who care about equity, who care about each other, coming together to make a collective impact. That is the heart of who we are. At Turium, we are aligning our efforts to reflect who we are as an organisation today by advancing four areas of impact: community, accountability, respect, and empathy.

Community: Nurturing a community that reflects the diversity of our lived and shared experiences.

Accountability: Aligning our actions with our mission and values with a commitment to self-reflect, learn, and improve.

Respect: Respecting who we are, where we come from, and the policies and practices that guide us at work.

Empathy: Infusing empathy into how we relate to one another.

To nurture a culture that reflects our most deeply held values:

All Turiumians participate in a structured, supportive training series to deepen understanding around issues of inequity, and to provide tools for hard conversations that are necessary for examining and interrupting inequity in the workplace and beyond.

To ensure equitable hiring practices, all hiring committee members receive training to address implicit bias, to craft interview questions that assess cultural competency and emotional intelligence, and to ensure diverse hiring committee composition.

Additionally, working groups within Turium cultivate an extensive library of learnings and resources on strengthening diverse partnerships, building an equitable and inclusive organisational culture, and more.
