Diversity and Inclusion

Any important initiative needs support from our leaders. Leaders define the change imperative for diversity and inclusion, set the tone for what is important, and make the business case. They set the example for others to follow and behave in ways that reflect and reinforce an inclusive and meritocratic environment.

Change starts with new insights. To become a more inclusive culture, we examine how our views shape mindset and behaviours - both conscious and unconscious. We understand the positive link between an inclusive culture, improved employee engagement, innovation, and ultimately better business results.

Our culture is the foundation of how things get done. D&I is integral to our culture and as such, employee policies, procedures and systems will reflect this commitment. As a meritocracy, Chubb strives to recruit, develop and retain the best talent.

Examining our workforce demographics provides a necessary benchmark. Establishing qualitative and quantitative measures allows us to assess progress, hold ourselves accountable and continuously improve. This includes sharing outcomes and driving accountability with the same discipline and rigor as we approach any problem solving.

Communication and messaging reinforces our commitment. We aim to have leaders articulate the desired culture clearly, consistently and repeatedly. We plan to showcase successes, stories, best practices, accomplishments, and insights across communication channels.

We are committed to creating an evident change which promotes an acceptance and openness about ability and mental wellness within the organisation.

"We are pleased to be the executive sponsors of Abilities & Wellbeing Network. Our aim is to build a culture that supports and recognises peoples' individuality which we believe is the key to the success of our business. As a network of our employees we will focus on promoting acceptance and openness surrounding ability and mental wellnes within Chubb."

Chubb is a multinational company, and our staff live and work in a multicultural world. In order to attract, retain and develop the best talent, we want Chubb to be a place where all our staff can bring their ‘whole self’ to work and feel comfortable about expressing their cultural heritage in an environment that is respectful of diversity and which positively celebrates and values the variety of backgrounds we all have.

The Gender Equality Network (GEN) provides opportunities for networking, education and development of business capabilities for all employees, with the aim of driving positive change towards the goal of gender equality within Chubb and the wider insurance industry.

“Gender equality is a cause but it is mostly a personal matter that requires the commitment of women and men, of me and of you. It is everyone's responsibility. In the future, there will be no women leaders. There will only be leaders.”

The Chubb Pride group brings together our LGBT employees and their supporters to provide opportunities for networking and support with the aim of driving positive change to making Chubb a fully inclusive place for our LGBT community.

“Creating a work environment that is genuinely inclusive, safe and welcoming allows all of our employees to have a sense of pride in who they are, who they work for and to bring their whole self to work each day. Having a strong LGBT support network not only helps our employees, it also helps us attract and retain customers, build products that are relevant to different groups and help us understand how to support those groups. Chubb Pride is open to everyone, having LGBT and allies as part of the group sends a message of strength and underlines that we are in this together.”

Through the work of the Social Mobility network, we are developing and promoting a culture of inclusion and equality, where access to internal and external opportunities at Chubb are open to all, regardless of background.

“At Chubb we have a strong network focused on Social Mobility, powered by some passionate people. The idea really is to access a wide range of diverse talent and match them to the skillsets we need at Chubb, to drive our organisation forward. We believe equality provides opportunity.”
