- 24 February 2025 - Generali Hong Kong continues to lead efforts in
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DE&I) through its continued
commitment to fostering an inclusive workplace and promoting
understanding and respect across the broader community. Reflecting its
mission to be a "Lifetime Partner", these efforts highlight the
company's dedication to driving positive impact.
Generali Hong Kong's DE&I initiatives extend across LGBTQI+
inclusion, women empowerment, neurodiversity, disability support, and
the impactful The Human Safety Net program. As part of the LGBTQI+
inclusion initiatives, a series of LGBTQI+ educational and awareness
videos, successfully launched to foster a more inclusive society through
engaging and heartfelt storytelling, has surpassed 5 million views and
received overwhelmingly positive feedback.
LGBTQI+ is an initalism for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender,
Questioning (or Genderqueer/Queer), and Intersex, while the "+"
represents other diverse gender identities and orientations.
Launched just six months ago, the LGBTQI+ video series was originated by
Generali Hong Kong and produced in collaboration with G Dot TV, a Hong
Kong-based media platform dedicated to empowering the LGBTQI+ community.
Throughout the production process, the series brought together
community members and allies to share their authentic stories, shed
light on the challenges they face and raise public awareness.
Globally, Generali supports LGBTQI+ inclusion through a range of
initiatives, including its employee resource group (ERG), WE PROUD. This
ERG is dedicated to promoting insight-sharing and fostering
collaboration across Generali's global markets. It also stimulates and
supports local business units in their participation in Pride events and
local initiatives. Its work is part of a broader strategy to create
inclusive workplaces and communities, reflecting Generali's ongoing
commitment to DE&I.
Ady Law, Chief Distribution and Marketing Officer of Generali Hong Kong,
shared, "At Generali Hong Kong, we are committed to fostering a
workplace culture that encourages innovation, celebrates diversity, and
empowers talent to thrive. This video series reflects Generali's value
of building an inclusive society where everyone feels valued and
supported to express their true selves."
Cammy Kwok, Director of G Dot TV, added, "We deeply appreciate
Generali Hong Kong's efforts to involve the community in producing this
video series to promote diversity, equity, and inclusion. As a
community-based media platform, we are committed to amplifying the
voices of the LGBTQI+ community, and we are grateful that Generali Hong
Kong shares our values. Throughout the production process, their team
demonstrated a strong commitment to understanding the community's needs
and authentic stories, enabling us to connect with community members and
public in meaningful ways. Their actions truly embody the spirit of
diversity and inclusion."
