Our social responsibility

"Being a responsible employer means above all bearing in mind that the strength of a company lies in the commitment of its workforce.

At BGL BNP Paribas we are bound together by our values and a promise:　"To be the bank for a changing world". That is why we expect all of our staff to help us build the bank of tomorrow, in a world that we aim to make better and more sustainable.

In return, we invest in our people’s development and offer them motivating and varied career opportunities. We also provide a high-quality work environment, based on professional equality and respect.　

These are the reciprocal commitments between the bank and its staff."

Louis de Looz-Corswarem
Director of Human Resources BGL BNP Paribas

A diverse range of backgrounds, gender equality, the inclusion of disabled employees and respect for differences are at the heart of our values.　
Our areas of engagement in 2019:　

• Fairness and respect: BGL BNP Paribas wants to provide a work environment where its staff are treated fairly and with respect. This ambition gave rise to the #Respect for colleagues awareness programme designed to prevent all forms of workplace violence.
  
• Women In Finance Charter Luxembourg : Since March 8, 2023, BGL BNP Paribas has been a signatory of the “Women in Finance Luxembourg” charter.
• Diversity: the BNP Paribas Group in Luxembourg devotes one week each year to diversity and inclusion. The bank encourages its staff to reflect on respecting difference through activities such as workshops, plays and conferences, which take place throughout Diversity Week.
  
• Gender diversity: MixCity Luxembourg – the internal professional network of BNP Paribas employees in Luxembourg – campaigns to promote equal job opportunities for men and women within the bank.

Guaranteeing a fulfilling and secure work environment for employees is also a sure way to boost client satisfaction.
