Diversity and inclusion

We’re breaking down barriers to a better future.

At Capgemini, we believe a workplace where everyone feels valued for who they are isn’t just a powerful moral responsibility – it’s also a source of competitive advantage. By having a diverse workforce that represents our society, and by fostering an inclusive culture, we’re building a place where our people can thrive.

That’s why we’re working with global and local organisations and our own employees to ensure we create equal opportunities for all, address bias in the workplace, and equip all our managers with the skills to be truly inclusive leaders.

Meet our Employee Networks

Six Employee Networks provide a place for our team to come together and share experiences.

Building an inclusive environment

In the UK, we deliver our focus on diversity and inclusion through our Active Inclusion programme. From inclusion surveys and unconscious bias training to internal Employee Networks and engagement initiatives, we seek to understand the needs, and hear the voices, of all our people.

Accelerating gender equality in tech

Women are key to shaping the future of the digital economy, whether in technology, business, or client-facing roles.

We have launched an ambitious program focused on improving female representation in recruiting, providing mentoring opportunities, and supporting women at key moments in their professional and personal lives. We have committed to having women make up 40% of our workforce by the end of 2025, with 30% female representation on our executive leadership teams. Read more on our progress towards our commitments.

Tackling racism at all levels

As a founding member of the World Economic Forum’s Partnering for Racial Justice in Business initiative, we are committed to building an equitable environment for professionals from under-represented minorities and to eradicating racism in the workplace. In the UK, we have signed the Race at Work Charter from Business in the Community, an organisation dedicated to responsible business.

Improving the integration of people with disabilities and neurodivergences

Capgemini is part of Valuable 500, a global network of CEOs committed to the inclusion of individuals with visible and hidden disabilities. In the UK, we hold a Disability Confident Employer Badge, which recognises our commitment to supporting team members with disabilities.

Building an LGBT+ friendly culture

Capgemini facilitates a safe environment that respects all sexual orientations and gender identities: lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, and queer along with their allies. Since 2007, we have been expanding our OUTfront global employee network, whose mission is to provide a forum for education and awareness supporting the professional growth and recognition of LGBT+ people. OUTfront currently operates in 26 countries.

Empowering inclusive leadership

Our managers and executives participate in inclusive leadership training, including a workshop on unconscious bias, to develop new mindsets and behaviors. This training is designed to help our people to recognise any biases they have, understand the impact they have on decision-making, and address them in order to ensure an inclusive and productive culture.
