  Fighting climate change

  In 2018, McKinsey became 100% carbon neutral globally and joined RE100, a group committed to using 100% renewable electricity. We have committed to purchasing 100% renewable electricity by 2025 (at the end of 2019, London office achieved 100%). We are members of the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), a public commitment to join the Business Ambition for 1.5°C campaign. Commitments include reducing absolute scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions 25% by 2025 from a 2019 base. We are also members of the World Business Council for Sustainable Development.; Our Code of Professional Conduct serves as a guide to our values and policies in action and our internal policies reinforce our commitment to delivering environmental benefits. We have a global environmental policy which outlines our targets and expectations and applies to all locations and our 30,000+ colleagues globally. ; Our Supplier Code of Conduct outlines our expectations of our suppliers, including in environmental sustainability. We work with suppliers to reduce their footprint, making this a core topic in commercial conversations and we support clients on sustainability through Vivid Economics, Planetrics, and our Sustainability Practice, helping them transition to a low-carbon and sustainable-growth economy, supporting 2,000+ projects with 800 clients in the last 3-years. We are Platinum rated by EcoVadis, placing us in the top 1% of >60,000 evaluated organisations globally, which measures impact on: environment, ethics, labour and human rights, and sustainable procurement. ; Our internal Go Green awards recognise colleagues and Green Teams in 100+ offices globally who have implemented 300+ initiatives to support environmental protection and improvement, leading to outcomes such as 30,000kg of office waste converted into recycled stationary. ; McKinsey’s approach to environmental management is accredited under ISO 14001, and we make every effort to minimise energy consumption, use of natural resources and waste generation.

  Covid-19 recovery

  McKinsey is committed to reinvesting in social impact work in the UK and supports the social sector through pro-bono projects. Particularly during the COVID response, this included supporting Oak National Academy’s launch which has delivered 20m online lessons to 4.7m users over the past 12 months. We established the McKinsey COVID Response Centre, a public online portal providing resources, tools and data that help decision makers across governments, organisations and businesses make real time decisions and guide their institutions through the new normal. With 34 million views by the end of 2020, our 600+ COVID-related publications helped support leaders and others adapt to new ways of working and help business recover from the impacts of COVID-19. It also connects SMBs and SMEs with the support and resources they need and showcases conversations with leaders responding to the crisis.; We supported COVID-19 recovery efforts by rolling out a comprehensive health and safety plan in our offices, which includes measures such as daily registration to use the office, mandatory training on COVID-19 protocols, effective social distancing, mask wearing and meeting room guidance (such as limiting meeting room capacity and implementing a colour-coding system). ; We expanded our flexible working arrangements to reflect the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. For example, we provided leaves of absence, flexible working and backup child- or eldercare solutions to help colleagues tackle challenges caused by the COVID-19 pandemic on their spheres of home and work.

  Tackling economic inequality

  As part of the United Nations Global Compact, McKinsey´s committed addressing economic inequality. We launched Generation UK to provide skills training and employer matching to unemployed youth, which has a 97% graduation rate and 80% job placement within 3 months of graduation. We also supported the Felix Project’s mission to eliminate food poverty in London by developing a plan to deliver >70m meals annually as they scale-up. We also support Rare Recruitment initiatives.; Every year we work with >600 NPOs through pro-bono services and volunteering and run initiatives that help grow SMEs and VCSEs, like FUEL, which has hosted 100 innovation bootcamps, with >600 McKinsey colleagues getting involved. We also supported ‘Be-The-Business’ in developing their technology enablement strategy for UK SMEs, Oxfam, Save the Children and Teach First in their business and organisational planning with pro-bono services.; We collaborate with educational organisations, such as IntoUniversity and Sutton Trust, to support and provide mentorship to young people from disadvantaged backgrounds to attain a (better) place in higher education establishments. We also provided mentoring to college students (16-17 year old) from schools in disadvantaged regions in the UK and university graduates in collaboration with Lambeth College, the Office for AI.; We hold our suppliers to our high standards of social responsibility. We aim to create a diverse supply chain to deliver our contracts. Our target is to double our spending with diverse suppliers within three years, to include more new organisations, SMEs and VCSE organisations, helping to diversify the supply chain to deliver our contracts. At McKinsey, diversity, equity, and inclusion are not just moral imperatives, they are integral to our dual mission—to help our clients make substantial, lasting performance improvements and to build a firm that attracts, develops, excites, and retains exceptional people.

  Equal opportunity

  McKinsey have long sought to advance diversity and inclusion in our own firm, in our clients, and in society more broadly, as well as to foster an inclusive culture, where every colleague - regardless of background - feels a deep sense of respect and belonging. Through PRISM (Progressing Representation and Inclusion in Social Mobility community), we are prioritising social mobility in recruiting and broadening access to McKinsey Careers. ; McKinsey is an equal opportunities employer actively supporting the recruitment, development and retention of skilled women (47% of employees in McKinsey are women), LGBTQ, persons with disabilities and persons representing different generations, political or religious beliefs, socio-economic backgrounds, nationalities, ethnicities and ethnic minorities. Examples include:; - “Access McKinsey” supports all colleagues with disabilities. The network shares best practices and raises awareness of disability issues.; - “McKinsey Black Network”, a 30 years old affinity that has created a series of initiatives to make McKinsey more accessible for black talent, e.g., launched the Sophomore Diversity Leaders Internship programme for minority students at US universities.; - “GLAM network” (LGBTQ+ at McKinsey), has been the focus of our commitment to LGBTQ+ inclusivity since 1995. GLAM works to make McKinsey a place that attracts, supports, respects, and retains talented LGBTQ+ professionals.; We’ve been globally recognised and are ranked #1 for Diversity & Inclusion by Vault.com and consistently rated in the top 10 best companies by Working Mother magazines since 2015. For 14 consecutive years, we’ve achieved a 100% score in the Human Rights Campaign Foundation’s Corporate Equality Index. In the UK, we´re proud to have been featured in the Times Top 50 Employers for Women for over 10 years, recognising the support we provide to women in building skills and progressing their careers.

  Wellbeing

  We are deeply committed to supporting the Health and Wellbeing, including physical and mental health, in our contract workforce. We have a market-leading reputation for looking after our people, and a lasting commitment to improving mental health and wellbeing – both within our firm and across the communities we serve. For our colleagues at McKinsey, we bring this commitment to life through our Values, our Code of Professional Conduct, and our policies and practices related to Health and Wellbeing–much is set out in our Social Responsibility Report, particularly ‘Living our Values’. We use our previous experience to ensure that our research methods are inclusive and representative of all relevant groups, regardless of background or ability.; Central to our employee's wellbeing is the freedom to work on projects they are passionate about and to contribute to their community through work and voluntary work. Our employees use their skills and knowledge to help charities (we have dedicated 222,000+ hours to social initiatives). Each employee has 3 fully paid volunteering days per year. Also, every McKinsey office donates to charities selected by employees. ; Finally, we have a range of policies and initiatives to support our colleagues’ mental and physical wellbeing. For example, our Mind Matters initiative provides early intervention support and clinical resources such as counselling, training and communications resources. We offer a range of family support packages including emergency childcare and dedicated education support workshops. And to support work-life balance, our Take Time programme gives colleagues the option to take an extra five to ten weeks off between projects, while My Experience supports employees holistically—mind, body, and purpose—in their day-to-day projects and teamwork.
