Diversity and Inclusion
Equal Opportunities
At Škoda, we view diversity, equity, and inclusion as cornerstones of our corporate culture. We’re dedicated to creating an environment where every individual feels valued and can flourish.
Championing diversity
We recognise that diversity enriches our teams and makes us stronger. That’s why we’ve launched our Diversity Strategy 2030 to support colleagues with disabilities, strengthen intergenerational cooperation and improve the gender balance in leadership roles. We’re proud to have achieved our 2022 Diversity Index targets and have ambitious plans to promote the less-represented gender to at least 25% of managerial positions by 2030.
Celebrating uniqueness
In June 2023, we unveiled the Škoda Enyaq Coupé Respectline, a car that embodies our commitment to diversity, equity, fairness, and respect. Its unique design underscores our mission to celebrate each person’s uniqueness and promote an inclusive environment, free from discrimination. You can catch the Škoda Enyaq Coupé Respectline at various diversity events both at home and abroad. It has already taken part in the Prague Pride Festival 2023, of which Škoda Auto is an official partner.

New Work concept and building partnerships
We’re continually seeking ways to enhance diversity, equity, and inclusion. To balance work and family life, we’ve introduced flexible working hours and remote work policies. Our diversity-driven training programmes, partnerships with communities, and collaborations with the Pride Business Forum and Czechitas non-profit organisation are part of our quest to build a more equitable workplace for the future.
Promoting diversity and inclusion
At Škoda, we believe economic and social development go hand-in-hand. That's why we stick to the concept of shared value which should benefit not only us as a company, but also our employees, customers, suppliers, the community at large and the environment. Shared value is based on sharing our skills, know-how and products with others to achieve better results and benefits together. To help us share more efficiently, we have defined two areas of focus within our social sustainability strategy: people & communities and diversity & inclusion.
