Affinity Network Groups 

Our Affinity Network Groups cover a wide variety of interests across the diversity spectrum.

At ANZ we understand the benefit to our employees, and the wider organisation, of having Affinity Network Groups (ANGs).

We value the contributions of those who put their hand up alongside the Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Team, to support the running of ANGs.

All of our ANGs have an executive sponsor who champions the work of their respective ANGs across ANZ.

ANZ is proud of our Pride Network for LGBTIQ+ (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Intersex, Queer, and other rainbow identities) employees and their allies.

Pride has been in place since 2007 and aims to be a voice, contact point and support mechanism. We aim to increase diversity, inclusion and respect through active engagement of our people across the globe.

We recognise the many individuals in our rainbow community. We use the acronym of LGBTIQ+ for ease of communication and do not intend to exclude anyone or their identity.

ANZ is proud to be certified as a Rainbow Tick organisation.
