Every May, the EU Diversity Month aims to promote fair workplaces in order to create a society and economy based on equal opportunities as much as possible. As the exclusive representative of the EU Diversity Charter in Hungary, the Hungarian Business Leaders Forum (HBLF) participates, for the 7th time, in the largest joint EU project to date, in collaboration with high-level domestic companies and organizations.
Joining HBLF are companies and organizations such as Abacus Medicine Hungary, AMC Networks Central Europe Kft., Budapest Festival Orchestra, Danone Kft., E.ON Hungária Zrt., ESAB Kft., Hegymegi-Barakonyi and Fehérváry Baker & McKenzie Law Firm, Henkel Hungary, Jobsgarden Kft., KPMG Hungary, Legrand Zrt., Magyar Telekom, MVÜK Zrt., Tesco Hungary, Women in Energy Association, Yettel Hungary.
Due to the acceleration of digitalization, automation, increased care needs, demographic changes, and geographically dispersed employees, the world of work is being transformed significantly, which can represent a serious threat, but can also be shaped into an opportunity. The 2024 European Diversity Month therefore focuses on how organizations take advantage of the future of work and adapt to a constantly changing world. HBLF says it is looking forward this May to the programs and initiatives organized within the EU Diversity Month again, which will also be included in the organization's May event calendar.
According to Zsuzsa Gárdus, the board member responsible for HBLF's Diversity Charter, "the goal of the Charter is to eliminate discrimination based on gender, race, religion, or any other factor - the programs planned for May put special emphasis on the matter. Once again, we excitedly await the diversity-related initiatives of our members and domestic companies during this period, which we will promote as widely as possible on our Charter website, in our newsletters, and on our social media platforms. We hope that by sharing best practices, we can inspire others to create a more inclusive work environment."
The Budapest Festival Orchestra was among the first ones to register its project: the BFZ organizes Community Weeks, during which musicians visit nursing homes, schools, underprivileged children, synagogues and churches to play music. Their goal is to make classical music available to people of all ages and in all circumstances. "A band can do a lot for its diversity if it does everything to make its audience diverse and strengthens itself as a network of small communities." - manager-director of the Budapest Festival Orchestra, Orsolya Erdődy said.
