Diversity & Inclusion (D&I)

At PwC, we’re all different. We believe that people from diverse backgrounds and with different points of view can work together to create the most value – for our clients, our people and our society.

To solve important problems we need to be inclusive of our diverse talent and empower our people to use their creativity, authenticity and human differences to be the champions of change. 

We believe it’s everyone's responsibility to help create a world of equal opportunity where no one is judged by the colour of their skin, their sexual orientation, gender identity, religious beliefs, disabilities or other differences.

What we’ve been up to lately

The PwC network has established a council to drive the agenda of Diversity and Inclusion. Individual member firms such as ours in Mauritius follow the global agenda and our local D&I committee drive initiatives across the 4 pillars - Generational, Gender, Disability Inclusion and Country/Culture.

As at date we are proud of the progress we have made and we are committed to go further and faster and help others on their journey. We aspire to be a workplace that supports all of our people and community to have the same opportunities.

Generational Diversity:

Our Re-ImaGen committee is committed to ensuring that all age groups are actively engaged and represented during decision making. Their focus is also on career aspirations, attitudes about work, and knowledge of new technologies that defines the culture of PwC.

Diversity and Inclusion - PwC Mauritius

Gender

Supporting our people to learn new skills, progress in their careers and reach their full potential regardless of their gender. For the occasion of International Women’s day, lately the D&I committee hosted a joint gender forum to discuss the pressures and impediments to female career development.

Disability Inclusion

As a team we are committed to working towards providing a work environment that is caring and supportive to our colleagues and people in our community. We have teamed up with the Global Rainbow Foundation to offer our support on accessibility to the PwC centre, employment and mentorship to their members.

As a firm, we are also focused on developing a strategic, coordinated approach to hiring and employment policies and tools to help foster the PwC experience for people with disabilities.

Country and Culture

Transforming our workforce and the way we work requires us to have very diverse talented people, from different backgrounds, people who have different experiences and bring innovation, creativity and a fresh perspective. We’re committed to improving the diversity of our workforce by building a culture that’s genuinely inclusive, a culture that empowers all of our people to thrive and feel they belong at PwC.  

During our weekly 2020 'Meet #teamPwC' online webcast series, our Expats shared how they were adapting to island life during an interactive session, raising awareness on how we embrace diversity in the workplace. 

A purposeful experience with PwC

Our Culture and Lifestyle

Culture

In order to be the leading professional services firm it's important we have the right values, culture and behaviours embedded throughout our organisation, so our work reflects our purpose and we can successfully deliver our strategy.

Our values (Act with integrity; Make a difference; Care; Work together and Reimagine the possible) set the expectations for the way we interact with each other, our clients, and in the communities in which we operate. These values, and the behaviours that they require from us, are relevant to all our people regardless of grade.

They support a culture that empowers our people to be the best they can be, through challenging experiences and encouraging our people to speak up to make the firm a better place. We want all our people to understand and embrace the culture and personally feel part of the legacy this will create for our future employees.

Lifestyle

The PwC Centre: Our new office in Moka is at the cutting edge of modern, sustainable design, and equipped with the latest technologies. You’ll find open spaces, fun areas, quiet pods, stand-up desks and heaps of other options to help optimise your well-being at work. Visit the PwC Centre.

Social scene: How you spend your free time is up to you, but our social scene is one of the best things about working here. We hope you're big on energy so that you can make the most of Team away days, social drinks and parties, CSR activities, the PwC Fun Day and the famous PwC End of Year Party. Learn more about our lifestyle at PwC.

Be well, work well

The wellbeing of our people is at the heart of everything we do. To succeed and thrive, we embrace practices that energise us and prioritise our well-being to be our best selves at home, work or in our communities.

Be Well, Work Well is PwC’s effort to create an environment where our people are encouraged to bring their best to work and are supported in achieving greater well-being by fueling themselves across four dimensions of energy—physical, emotional, mental and spiritual. 

As part of the initiative, we provide our staff with subsidies for them to take care of their well-being; activities such as Personal gym sessions, Personal yoga sessions, Dancing Lessons, FootFive sessions, Massage, Trail/Marathon and healthy eating options for lunch. We also provide our staff with in-house free yoga classes and gym sessions after working hours.

All claims for the listed activities are made using an innovative wellness app we've developped in-house: Mo'tivate.

Upskilling; new world, new skills

It’s hard to miss the accelerating pace of change and digital disruption we and our clients now face. Some shy away from it. We’re embracing it, to continue to be the leading professional services firm, delivering excellence and innovation for our clients. 

As part of our digital transformation journey, we invest in our people, their skills and the technology available as we continue to modernise our business and the way we serve our clients. We want our people to help us build our digital future faster and to be at the heart of our digital disruption.

Beyond having just digital/technical expertise, if you have a digital mindset, the curiosity, energy and the passion for all things tech, then PwC is definitely the place for you.
