Diversityandinclusion
Air New Zealand is making strong progress in its diversity and inclusion objectives and continues to be resolutely focused on diversity across its
business. Our diversity objectives remain focused on increasing the representation of female and ethnic minority groups across our organisation
and into leadership positions to ensure they are more reflective of both the populations in which we do business and our customer base. In the
2015 financial year we have expanded our diversity focus to include sexual orientation and young professionals.
Looking to the 2016 financial year, a programme of work has been committed to which includes continuing making progress on the initiatives
commenced in the 2015 financial year and in addition:
• Design and delivery of a specic Women in Leadership Development Programme for women who have been identied as having the
potential for more senior leadership positions;
• The launch of a parents’ network;
• Further focus and target setting in relation to Maori and Pacic employees; and
• Development of a transition programme of support for those employees nearing retirement.
