Considerations of equality, diversity and inclusion in the workplace are at the forefront of many company agendas today. Our 2022 Skills, Retention and Attraction Survey confirmed that 57 percent of UK businesses regard equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) as a strategic priority when recruiting new staff.
This report seeks to help organisations better promote equality, diversity and inclusion in the workplace and reap the rewards of a truly diverse workforce. The Equality Act 2010 went a long way to assuring that employment rights and opportunities are afforded to all. Our report goes beyond an analysis of staid employment law to reveal actionable ways to instil an inclusive work culture.
In this report, we interrogate contemporary research on EDI and use real-life case studies shared by our clients to provide digestible content on the following areas:
- What is equality, diversity and inclusion?
- Why is diversity and inclusion important?
- Equality, diversity and inclusion strategy
- Conclusion: How to raise awareness of diversity, equality and inclusion
