Azur Awards 2018: Orth Kluth nominated for the Diversity Award

Every year, the Azur editorial team honours four employers - law firms as well as legal departments, public authorities or consulting firms, provided they employ German lawyers - for their special commitment to promoting young talent with the Azur Awards.

For the award in the category "Diversity", the Azur editorial team nominates five employers each, based on comprehensive research, who have stood out as particularly dynamic and committed. In addition to dynamic development and active promotion of a diversity culture, it takes the following aspects into account in particular:

- Is there real equality of opportunity on the career path - regardless of e.g. gender, family situation, migration background, religious affiliation, sexual orientation, etc.?
- Does the employer consciously address the issue of diversity? Do the managers credibly exemplify a diversity culture? Are there innovative projects?
- How does the employer manage the diverse expectations of employees?
For 2018, Orth Kluth was nominated alongside the law firms Glade Michel Wirtz, Hengeler Mueller, Linklaters and McDermott Will & Emery.
