Equity, Diversity & Inclusion
This award recognises an organisation’s commitment to create a diverse and inclusive culture that is centred around equality.
A diverse and inclusive working environment with equity of opportunity increases team engagement and drives success. Increased diversity brings new solutions, different perspectives and informed decisions, all of which contribute to more effective problem-solving and greater sustainability.
The award is open to all organisations irrespective of their location.
