Policy
Often organisations expand on a general policy statement of commitment to creating an inclusive workplace to also state the roles, responsibilities and expectations of employees in supporting this commitment
Senior decision-makers
Senior decision-makers discuss the implications of equality and diversity and of creating an inclusive workplace for their organisation. There is a good understanding of what the key issues are for the organisation in terms of race, gender and disability within their workforce. They have begun to develop a shared understanding of why creating an inclusive workplace is important to the organisation.
The factors motivating action and creating commitment might be linked to, for example:
- attracting & retaining the best talent
- more effectively meeting customer needs
- promoting innovation & creativity
- meeting legal requirements.
Managers and all staff
Having established how creating an inclusive workplace can support business success, the commitment, vision, strategy and goals are communicated throughout the organisation.
