Diversity and inclusion

We firmly believe in equal opportunity, diversity and inclusion, which is reflected in our Diversity and Inclusion Statement. Diversity is inherent to the way we operate and is core to the success of any business operating in a competitive market.

Across the firm, we have a number of initiatives focussed on developing a diverse and inclusive work environment.

We have adopted the Law Council of Australia’s Equitable Briefing Policy where we aim to brief women in at least 30 per cent of all matters and pay 30 per cent of the value of all brief fees.

The firm is committed to providing a flexible and supportive work environment and to that end has policies, arrangements and wellbeing initiatives that encourage and support employees to achieve a balance between their work and outside interests.

Thomson Geer is a member of the Australian Network on Disability (AND). Every year we celebrate fundraising and awareness initiatives, and we participate in the AND Stepping Into program which matches university students with disability to businesses.‍
