Inclusion and
Belonging
A place to be you
We’re making sure ours is an inclusive environment, where everyone can be their true selves and where everyone’s voice is valued. This diversity of thought, these different perspectives, help us thrive – both as individuals, and as a team. It champions creativity and drives the innovation that helps save our customers money. And it represents the diversity of customers we’re here to help.
Developing our inclusive culture
Our Employee Resource Groups (ERG’s) play a huge part in helping us celebrate our differences. They focus on a range of topics, from mental and physical wellbeing, to balanced representation, employee voice, and the environment. Raising awareness through events such as Pride, mental health, neurodiversity and reducing carbon footprint, over 10% of all our people are involved in one of our groups. And there’s always room for more!
Diversity, fairness, and equality
From equal parental leave (6 months at full pay) to flexible work patterns and proactive mental health support, we’re committed to making sure everyone feels supported here. And has the opportunity to develop their career how they want, regardless of their background, age, ethnicity, gender identity, or learning preference.
Diversity, fairness and equality are central to our inclusive culture. We have our sights on making a positive impact on our communities, and reflect their diversity. As well as being a workplace where every one of our colleagues feels represented, at all levels, have equal access to opportunities, and where nobody is disadvantaged.
Working Towards Equal Pay for All
We’re always pushing further in our effort to close our gender pay gap. And you can check out the progress and commitments we've made in our latest Gender Pay Gap report. And even though reporting your ethnicity pay gap isn’t mandatory, this will be the third year we’ve chosen to share ours.
“We recognise we have progress still to make, but I’m confident we have a solid strategy to guide us forward and build upon. We know changes don’t happen overnight and we continue to concentrate on our three areas of focus: allyship, hiring and development.”
- Lisa Townsend, Chief People Officer
Colleague Connections
We’re lucky to have such active communities of colleagues who share experiences and support each other. These channels are the go-to places for topics such as parenting, mental wellbeing, neurodiversity, and menopause.
Some of our colleagues have also shared their stories through vlogs, events, fireside chats and blogs. The topics have been hugely insightful, and really helped us understand what it’s like to walk in other people's shoes each day. Stories such as…
- Living with Aspergers and Deafness
- Living with Dyslexia
- Let’s Talk about Menopause
- Mental Health Bereavement Talk
- Understanding Intersectionality
Family Wellbeing and Support
Our Family Wellbeing Support Guidelines are here to empower our colleagues to ask for adjustments, carry out their daily role in a safe working environment (whether at home or in the office), and have open discussions with colleagues and line managers, as well as ensuring fair and consistent treatment.
They cover the topics of menopause, perimenopause, fertility treatment, pregnancy and baby loss and domestic violence. And to build on this, we’re providing training and external resources for managers and colleagues on these topics, to support them when they need it most.
