In January 2019, we published our equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) strategy, “Total Inclusion”, which set out our four strategic aims to deliver clear and tangible objectives and targets for our entire organisation to achieve. In 2022, whilst we are still focusing and evolving our efforts around delivering against our four strategic aims contained within our Total Inclusion strategy, our immediate priority actions directly respond to our key findings in our employee Inclusion Survey, employee diversity data trends and consultation with our under-represented groups – these are as follows:
- A new and more transparent approach to promotions
- Investing in developing more BAME leaders
- Investing in developing a Reciprocal Mentoring scheme
- Setting ethnicity aspirational goals to improve representation at all levels
- Leadership accountability for driving and delivering EDI across our organisation
