Diversity and inclusion
We firmly believe that diversity breeds success – especially when it comes to the LLB Group’s senior management team. We offer all employees the same employment and promotion opportunities, irrespective of their gender, age, religion, nationality, ethnic background, sexual orientation or physical abilities.
We live diversity and inclusion every day through our corporate values:
- We advocate diversity.
- We treat each other as equals – without prejudice.
- We act together and with foresight.
- Diversity drives us forward.
The LLB focuses on two specific aspects: gender diversity and generation diversity.
The LLB implements targeted measures to achieve its defined qualitative and quantitative objectives.
Our existing management processes are geared towards creating an inclusive corporate culture right from the time we first encounter a prospective colleague (from initial contact and recruitment to development and retention). This approach enables our employees to gain new perspectives and a vast wealth of knowledge.
But an inclusive corporate culture is only possible if we work together. A group of interested employees is working in consultation with Group Executive Management/Senior Management, focussing on the visibility and the ongoing further development of the measures for the defined focus topics.
Initiative 55+
As part of LLB’s diversity endeavours, duty of care and appreciation, we are committed to helping our employees remain fit, productive, and motivated right up until the end of their professional careers. Our 55+ employees are important to us; they have invaluable professional and life experience as well as being exceptionally loyal, reliable, and committed. We offer them various types of employment – flexible retirement models, specialist careers, expert roles, leadership roles or project-based tasks, for example – commensurate with the stage of life they have reached and their specific needs.
One of the cornerstones of our 55+ programme is active dialogue with our experienced employees.
Young Talent Programme
We also offer a dedicated programme for our up-and-coming stars – the Young Talent Programme.
Here, junior staff are able to assume responsibility and learn new skills. At LLB, we are proud to be able to support the career development of our graduates.
LLB knows that young adults buy into LLB diversity and have a positive impact on our corporate culture. From day one, they assume ownership, take the lead in pursuing issues, and inject new ideas and impetus – often based on their own research. Extensive training, coupled with insights into operational and strategic activities, enables young talents to develop their potential, making them ideal candidates for key positions.
Remuneration – transparent and fair
LLB operates a Group-wide remuneration system that provides transparency for all employees in respect of target earnings. As well as allowing comparability between hierarchical levels, the system is designed to create equality between female and male employees, ensuring that there are no significant gender pay gaps, and that remuneration is fair for all employees.
Equal opportunities
At LLB Group, we go to great lengths to make sure that all employees receive the same work and promotion opportunities. We consider diversity aspects, such as the existing team mix, as early as the recruitment process. Furthermore, recruitment decisions are down to a group comprising various genders and generations rather than to one person alone.
Adopting a range of perspectives allows us to ensure objectivity
The LLB Group has two essential and harmonised development tools: the Performance Management Process (PMP) and the People Development Process (PDP).
The key feature of the PDP is that the assessment is not conducted by the direct supervisor alone; it has to be confirmed by a group of managers. This ensures objectivity beyond departmental boundaries and brings particularly talented employees to our attention. In this way, we are able to identify shining talents of a more reserved nature, who might otherwise slip under the radar.
