Covid-19 recovery

Covid-19 recovery

When the world locked down to combat the COVID-19 virus, we took immediate action to ensure our colleagues had the equipment and resources they needed to work from home, which also enabled success for our users. Our global task force provided continuous communication, education, and support services to our colleagues. Their wellbeing fuelled our response plan, and we created learning resources to support them throughout the pandemic. These resources included guides and practices for managers to lead virtually with empathy, tips for maintaining team collaboration, and resources and support for colleagues to maintain a healthy work-life balance.

As the pandemic continues, and work flexibility is seen as the key to success for the business and our colleagues’ wellbeing, we’ve introduced the Infrastructure Empowered Workforce Plan (IEWP). The IEWP is built on a solid foundation of trust. Colleagues are empowered to make responsible and effective choices on the right balance between working from the office and remotely. This plan does not require colleagues to come into the office at any specific frequency. Rather, it provides colleagues the flexibility to make these choices with their manager and within their teams to achieve business success and maintain a high level of productivity and engagement.
Tackling economic inequality

Tackling economic inequality

"As a global company with colleagues of different cultures, backgrounds, and perspectives based in more than 40 countries worldwide, our diversity is what makes us successful. We have developed strategies and programs focused on increasing diversity and equity, as well as fostering a culture of inclusion and wellbeing in the workplace. These initiatives include building a pipeline of diverse candidates by recruiting at and partnering with Historically Black Colleges and Universities.
We also partner with educational and professional organisations to provide internships, scholarships, grants, and projects that support groups underrepresented in technology.
Bentley has active and engaged colleague resource groups within the Inclusion, Diversity, and Equity Alliance (IDEA) that have allowed colleagues, during this pandemic, to join their peers from all regions and departments with the goals of building community and fostering diversity and inclusion. IDEA currently has four focus groups open to all global colleagues: OpenPride, OpenAbilities, People of Colour in the U.S., and Women at Bentley. IDEA has been a platform for education and a place to securely have difficult discussions about racism, discrimination, and bias through book clubs, panel discussion, speakers, and global awareness events. Members of executive management are key sponsors of each focus group and have been instrumental as sounding boards and in providing access to resources and the executive team.
We have implemented robust training with topics focused on respect in the workplace, identifying and overcoming bias, and anti-discrimination. We have held interactive sessions with our executives, emerging leaders, and talent acquisition in fostering diversity, equity, and inclusion and eliminating unconscious bias, and have implemented training for hiring managers to ensure fairness in the interview process.
You can find additional information, including our commitment to anti-slavery on our ESG website: https://www.bentley.com/en/esg/data-center"
