Inclusion First – Rooted in South Africa’s diversity
At PwC South Africa, Inclusion First means creating a workplace where everyone feels seen, heard and valued. In a country as diverse as ours, inclusion isn’t just a value—it’s essential for meaningful progress.
We’re committed to helping our people develop the skills to lead inclusively and to embed inclusion into everything we do. From recruitment to leadership, our systems and policies are designed to create equitable opportunities for all—across race, gender, ability and background.
Our behaviours reflect the spirit of Ubuntu—“I am because we are”. Through the PwC Professional framework, we lead with empathy, act with integrity and champion inclusion every day.
At PwC in South Africa, women comprise 56% of our workforce, and make an invaluable contribution to our firm. Our strong focus on gender diversity is evident through the many programmes that we have in place.
