Swaab ranked amongst the high­est on part­ner­ship gen­der equality

The sur­vey high­light­ed the num­ber of female equi­ty part­ners in Aus­tralian law firms still hov­er around on aver­age 27 per cent. Swaab’s Man­ag­ing part­ner Mary Digiglio said,​“We have been able to achieve this bal­ance of gen­der equi­ty organ­i­cal­ly, with­out the need for quo­tas using a mer­it based sys­tem that recog­nis­es an indi­vid­u­al’s per­for­mance and cul­tur­al fit. This also extends to our FTE part­ners where 40.28 per cent are female, well above the aver­age of 31.9 per cent.”
