Our commitment to equalities
Our strategy for promoting diversity and inclusion centres around three key themes.
Developing our understanding of how our workforce profile reflects the wider community by:
- improving the quality of our equalities data
- communicating with colleagues about the importance of collecting this data
- highlighting how we can use the data to target our resources more effectively
Building an inclusive culture where each individual feels valued, included, and able to be themselves, by:
- promoting important dates and events that impact on the lives of our colleagues
- adopting a highly visible approach to promoting diversity and inclusion
Attracting and retaining a diverse workforce through our approach to talent and resourcing by:
- looking at how and where we advertise posts to encourage a diverse candidate group
- reviewing our recruitment and selection process to reduce unconscious bias
- supporting managers to create an inclusive culture
