Diversity and inclusion
Diversity, equity and inclusion are important elements of a congenial, creative and collaborative workplace at Tencent.
“I encourage women to pursue what they want in life. So many female figures have made great achievements to show that gender does not define who you are and what you can be. Many leaders at Tencent are women.” Assistant producer of Data Analysis, Tencent’s Interactive Entertainment Group Global (IEGG)

Diversity and inclusion
Tencent released Our Commitment to Diversity, Equity and Inclusion in 2023, which firmly articulated our determination to integrate these important principles into our corporate culture and daily practices. In November 2023, we expanded this commitment to bring it into alignment with international initiatives by signing the Women’s Empowerment Principles. It is an initiative jointly launched by UN Women and the UN Global Compact; signatory companies have pledged to actively promote gender equity and women’s empowerment in the workplace, marketplace, and communities. This move further demonstrates our ongoing commitment to and support for global gender equity.
The diversity of our employees is fully respected, encompassing factors including but not limited to age, race, gender, nationality, and physical condition. The company has established mechanisms to ensure fairness and impartiality throughout the recruitment, compensation, training, and promotion process, thereby further enhancing the diversity of the workforce.
In terms of creating an inclusive workplace, Tencent has fully considered the diverse needs of employees in the design of our office spaces and facilities. The company has installed nursing rooms for breastfeeding mothers, and in its self-developed office buildings, has provided barrier-free facilities to assist people with physical challenges. This is in accordance with the requirements of the “Code for Accessibility Design in China”.
