AG2R La Mondiale demonstrates a deeply embedded commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion across its 14,000 employees in France and overseas territories. Its initiatives span age, disability, gender, and LGBT+ inclusion, underpinned by a Diversity Charter signed in 2006 and renewed through concrete actions. The group has achieved a disability employment rate of 9%, double the legal threshold, and a Gender Equality Index of 91/100, ensuring equal pay and access to leadership. Older employees, who represent 40% of the workforce, benefit from tailored training and mobility opportunities, while the younger generation is supported through an internship scheme and over 400 apprenticeships annually, with targeted inclusion of disadvantaged groups. Responsible purchasing integrates CSR criteria into 100% of tenders, with inclusive suppliers among the top 15. Campaigns against sexism, LGBT+ awareness webinars, and innovative initiatives like ‘Comme 1 COMEX’ showcase inclusive decision-making. This holistic, measurable approach makes AG2R a benchmark for DEI excellence.  The judges viewed this balance of social purpose, tangible delivery, and emerging performance impact as justification for the award.
