KUALA LUMPUR, 7 JULY 2023 – Petroliam Nasional Bhd (Petronas) and Ernst & Young Consulting Sdn Bhd (EY) have recently signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to jointly collaborate in developing Malaysia’s neurodiversity ecosystem.
Petronas said the MoU outlines areas for collaboration between Petronas and EY in creating awareness of neurodiversity in Malaysia, promoting and facilitating organisational readiness in creating neurodiversity job opportunities, as well as providing upskilling and community support to selected organisations and academic institutions.
“The collaboration is part of Petronas’ commitment to advancing its diversity and inclusion (D&I) agenda, which also encompasses growing its diverse workforce to include neurodiverse talents.
These strengths will prove to be crucial as PETRONAS develops its talent pool for the jobs of the future, which require new and innovative solutions to address the energy transition,” Petronas said in a statement today.
Petronas senior vice president, of Group Human Resource Management, Farehana Hanapiah said EY has been on the journey for the last eight years and has been able to quantify tangible business outcomes as a result of having neurodiverse talents as part of their workforce.
“This MoU provides a platform for both Petronas and EY to promote awareness, advocate for neurodiverse talents and start building a movement for a more equitable ecosystem for neurodiverse talents in Malaysia on a larger scale,” Farehana said.
Meanwhile, Ernst & Young PLT, Malaysia Markets Leader, Ismed Darwis Bahatiar said: “By recognising and celebrating the unique perspectives and abilities of neurodiverse individuals, we are collectively fostering a culture of innovation, driving sustainable growth across the energy sector and positively impacting communities.”
