In 2021, Soluware joined the ‘Diversity Charter’, in which employers network in various ways, share their activities on this topic, learn from each other and celebrate the 10th Diversity Day together on 31 May 2022.

Diversity Day makes it clear that recognising, appreciating and including diversity in the world of work also helps companies to better manage future issues and inspire employees. Promoting openness and appreciation of a diverse team increases employee satisfaction, loyalty and therefore performance.  

To mark Diversity Day on 31 May 2022, Soluware organised an international lunch with contributions from the team on the topic of diversity. Employees brought along their favourite food from one country and designed posters. From Swabian potato salad and Thai noodle salad to desserts from India and Pakistan, everyone was delighted.  

Catrinel Szilagyi, Team Leader HR at the Schulz Group, says ‘You can taste diversity at our company! A team lunch is the perfect setting for living diversity and raising awareness of the different nations in the workplace. Today, everyone has brought along a piece of their cultural identity in the form of a typical national dish. A culinary exchange that strengthens cohesion and mutual appreciation in a diverse team.  

‘Diversity is what makes us Soluware,’ says Amelie Schulz, Managing Director of Schulz Group GmbH and Soluware GmbH. ‘Working in a team from different cultural backgrounds such as Europe, Eastern Europe and the Far East with different approaches is an enrichment for us and our customers. In the IT sector, diversity also means achieving a high proportion of women. We have over 30% women in our team, which is well above the national average of 13-17%’.
