At DNV, we believe diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) in the workplace strengthens our ability to deliver on our Purpose, Vision and Values. Our commitment to DEI is both an ethical choice and a business decision.
Our global team of over 12,500 employees, who represent more than 100 nationalities, are the face of DNV in over 100 countries all over the world. We build relationships with customers that are based on trust in our technical ability, as well as on the integrity and personal conduct of our people. To serve our customers to the best of our ability requires diverse identities, backgrounds, experiences and perspectives. It demands that we develop and sustain a culture of inclusivity and psychological safety that allows each employee to deliver their best work.
