  • Disability Inclusion

    We offer employees with disabilities an equal opportunity to succeed, to learn, to be compensated fairly, and to advance. True inclusion is about embracing difference and our commitment to disability inclusion is a deeply held belief to build, foster, and grow a workplace culture that is welcoming to people of all backgrounds. We want to be by your side and ensure you receive the necessary accommodation when needed, which is why we encourage everybody to self-disclose their disabilities from pre to post-onboarding, so we can innovate how we work and the tools and technology we use with the hopes of empowering our employee community to spark a positive change.

Women's Aid

As part of our partnership with Women's Aid, a leading national charitable organisation working to stop domestic violence against women and children in Ireland since 1974, we have established a domestic abuse policy to ensure the Allianz workplace is an inclusive environment which stands in solidarity with victims and survivors of abuse. This policy will help create a safe work environment where any employee can feel safe to make a disclosure and know they will be heard and supported. We are also committed to educating our workforce on domestic abuse through training sessions with Women’s Aid to recognise the signs of abuse and to know what resources are available to support anyone in need of help.
