Diversity and Inclusion

Diversity and inclusion is at the heart of everything we do. This means creating and maintaining a modern and inclusive workforce, which welcomes all people irrespective of gender, disability, culture, age, sexual orientation and caring responsibilities.

We are committed to a diverse and inclusive workforce, and realise the benefits that people from diverse backgrounds contribute to our communities and workplaces.

We value and respect individual differences, and have no tolerance to direct and indirect discrimination. This also applies to our open and inclusive employment practices, attracting talented staff from all groups within the community.

Inclusive recruitment

We are committed to supporting the employment and career development of people from all diverse backgrounds.

Cultural and Diversity Networks

We have an engaged, proactive and supportive group of culture and diversity networks. All staff are encouraged to join and participate in these networks, enhancing the support, guidance and camaraderie between staff.

Health and wellbeing

We are committed to fostering a mentally, physically and socially healthy workplace, where our people are supported to thrive without stigma, and are empowered to prioritise the health and wellbeing of themselves and their colleagues.
We invest in initiatives that support our people, increase awareness of matters that impact on our health and wellbeing, and strengthen our existing capability to proactively support each other.

Diversity Strategies

We aim to achieve greater diversity through collective contribution of all employees. Our diversity outcomes require us to create and maintain a modern, agile and inclusive workplace which welcomes people from all ethnic, cultural, religious or social backgrounds.

External resources and partners

We are a corporate member of a number of external independent, not-for-profit organisations.
