D&I events

Pink Friday, November 2020

Pink Friday is an annual celebration to support our LGBTQ colleagues, and SHINE, our employee-led LGBTQ network in Mainland China and Hong Kong, organised virtual celebrations on 20 November 2020.

As we shared on the virtual celebrations, visibility is an important part of being an ally to the LGBTQ community, and many partners and staff wore pink and held team gatherings to support our LGTBQ colleagues.

Together, we’ll collaborate closely and actively to make sure PwC continues to be a diverse and inclusive work environment.

“Mulan in Tax” – Cross LoS Bootcamp, June 2019

Have you had another busy season? Hectic work schedules and endless work to deal with are most likely to cause anxiety, even anger and helplessness...

Have you brought these negative emotions when you back home, affecting your relationships with your children, loved ones, and even your parents.

Do you know your mental health? Do you manage your emotions? Do you want to learn how to have a positive attitude?

Don't worry! We invited a national psychological consultant to help us, share experiences and answer our questions, offer different points of view and learn to look through diversified perspectives.

LoS-Tax Celebrate “Mulan” festival DIY – flower arrangement, March 2019

With more female colleagues at Tax, we built the “Tax Mulan” platform for colleagues to discuss work and share life. Besides, avoiding unconscious gender discrimination is also high on our agenda. Just to give an example, when roses are gifted to our female colleagues on Women’s Day, male colleagues also receive festive chocolate to share the joy.

To celebrate “Mulan’s festival”, organised flower arrangement experience by Ichyio School of Ikebana. We invited an elegant female master with great creative inspiration to give a lecture. Each of us had a fun and creative time.
