Our diversity at Uniper is a variety of talents, mindsets, perspectives, qualities, abilities, and attributes of our employees and business partners.
Our individual differences make our company strong and more successful – both the visible differences, e.g. gender or age; as well as invisible differences, e.g. experiences, values, education, sexual orientation, or religious background.
“Our ambition is to create a safe environment that encourages everyone to participate wholeheartedly. By removing barriers and reducing bias, we create equal opportunities – our contribution to a more diverse, inclusive and fairer workplace. “
Larissa Leienbach, DEI Manager

“DEI is part of Uniper’s sustainable transformation. A workforce that represents a diverse collection of experiences, perspectives, and backgrounds is more likely to understand environmental and societal footprint and transform it into a sustainable and positive impact. My mission as a leader is to enable an inclusive work environment where every voice is heard and valued.”
Frank Plümacher, EVP Sustainability & HSSE

“At Uniper “treating everyone in a fair way”, and “making everyone feel included” are serious topics. This is why we regularly seek feedback from our employees, we listen to them, and we make changes so that we can get closer and closer to our vision of DEI.“
Valentina Verrini, EVP Operational Excellence

“Diversity and inclusion - these values represent our unique culture and define who we are, not just as professionals but how we treat each other as family.“
Colleagues from the Dubai Office

“Kindness, humanity, and respect are at the forefront of company culture and DEI mindset at Uniper. Employee-driven communities contribute to this mindset by amplifying the sense of connection and belonging. As a DEI ambassador and an active member of Pride Community, my mission is to embed conscious inclusion into company values and culture.“
Yasin Efe, Sustainability Advisor

„ We as works council members want to continue to be actively involved in DEI processes as DEI ambassadors. Our aim is to continue to work with the employer to ensure that there is an open welcoming culture and that all employees feel valued and appreciated.“
Martin Krimphove and Stefanie Bastek, Works Council UTG

“At Uniper, we value each other’s contribution, independent of age, experience or hierarchy level. Our internationality makes us more competitive and a fun place to work!“
Dr. Holger Kreetz, Head of Asset Management

“Making our allyship and support visible is important. That’s why we at Ratcliffe Power Station are happy to wear our Pride lanyards, so everybody knows they have someone to talk to.“
Sue Pinkett, Matthew Vas, Lynne Allard and Pete O’Grady, Ratcliffe Power Station

“The wonderful internationality of our staff inspires each individual in Uniper to embrace Diversity, Equity and Inclusion in one's mindset and behaviors. My mission as DEI sponsor is to help turning our further aspirations into practice.“
Michael Schiffarth, SVP Asset IT

“I constantly learn about my biases about others and myself, and it surprises me every time. I honor differences, as they represent the richness of life, and this helps me to understand myself better.
By increasing my own awareness as a DEI ambassador, I raise overall attention and encourage others to grow with me.”
Aleksandra De Martso, Operational Excellence Expert
