Corporate Responsibility at PricewaterhouseCoopers: People

PricewaterhouseCoopers Luxembourg is well aware of the importance of its human capital and considers it a central priority to be developed both internally and externally.

Our people

We promote a quest for balance whether it be between men and women with our “Gender Diversity” initiative or our 49 different nationalities, body and mind with our "Wellness” program or work and leisure with “PoP Out” and its numerous cultural, social and sports events. Fair-trade products are also preferred every time it is possible: coffee and candy bars in coffee corners, gifts during staff events etc.

As an Employer of choice, we consider our staff well-being as a top priority. Our “Wellness” programme, launched a few years ago is articulated over 3 pillars:

• Diagnostic: a series of preventive health actions (Flu vaccination, Eye testing, Check-up programme, Stop smoking campaign)
• Learning: a fundamental knowledge about well-being issues (Stress Management courses, “Ecole du Dos”, Health Management Programme, Seminar “Wellness, Balance and Performance”)
• Practising: exercises and workshops to experience well-being solutions and behaviours (Mentally Fit Institute workshops: Energy management, Energetic nutrition, Physical activity, Sleep Fresh season fruits, On site chair massage).

In 2007, PwC Luxembourg was honoured with the “Eurofirms HC Best pratice Awards” (Category “Developing our people”) given by PwC network as a result of the time and resources invested in initiatives which focus on wellness.

We also actively solicit the opinions of our staff and partners with our “Global People Survey” as this allows us to mirror reality more closely and bring pertinent responses to expectations voiced. Our ability to listen is the first step that guides all our internal actions as a firm.
