We are committed to achieving diversity, as the diversity of ECHA’s staff is essential to the Agency's success. We do not discriminate on the grounds of sex, race, colour, ethnic or social origin, genetic features, language, religion or belief, political or any other opinion, membership of a national minority, property, birth, disability, age or sexual orientation.

We achieved excellent results in the most recent staff survey (2023) and have been awarded a recognition as one of Finland's most inspiring workplaces.
