Celebrating Diversity and Inclusion In The Workplace

Working in recruitment, we have dedicated ourselves to creating inclusive and diverse workforces, which has a positive impact on both our team and the clients we serve.

As you already know, we have introduced many aspects to our recruitment process to drive diversity. As part of this, we regularly audit ourselves, ensuring we set objectives and targets to improve over the coming months. I wanted to share with you some of our achievements and best practice within diversity.

Here are three of our recent highlights that we are proud to share:

• 100% of our passive candidate searches for roles over the last three months have not only met the market sample for ethnicity and gender diversity, but have exceeded it.

• Over the last four months, looking at operational candidates accepting roles over the last 4 months, we have been 16% above the gender target and 18% above the ethnicity target.

• Lastly, when looking at our audit scores from the most recent audit to the audit completed six months before, we increased our green scores by 14% and transitioned 100% of our reds scores.

In the future we are putting more targets in place to tackle unconscious bias and other elements that affect our decision making throughout the process. This is something that is a challenge but can be minimised with effective tools in place.

We would love to set up a Teams call with you to show you more about how we incorporate diversity in the recruitment process. Reach out to us on 01775 729590.

Have a great week.
