Equality and equal treatment
Prevex strives to be an inclusive workplace with a focus on equality and equal opportunities. It is important to us that our employees can balance work and family life.
An equal workplace
Prevex aims to be an equal workplace where various departments include representatives of both genders and a balanced age distribution. We encourage both men and women to apply for open vacancies. Our hiring criteria are based on competence, experience, and personal qualities.
How we ensure this in practice
- Our job advertisements are designed to be gender-neutral.
- Advertisements are published in English or in both national languages (Swedish and Finnish).
- The majority of vacancies are promoted through social media.
- If a position is advertised in newspapers, both Swedish and Finnish local titles are used.
