Diversity
We believe that diversity is a business issue and needs to be managed accordingly. Unless we are able to attract and retain talented individuals from a broader range of backgrounds than has been the case historically, we will fail to realise our plans for the coming years.
The Group understands that it is essential to attract and retain talented individuals who reflect the diverse nature of the areas in which we work.
The Group has polices in place to ensure that our candidate attraction does not exclude any individuals based upon diversity, and recruits staff purely based upon their abilities.
Although currently there are no women on the Board or Executive Team, women account for 20% of management and 40% of all employees.
The Board recognises the benefits of having a diverse cross-section of people in senior management positions. It understands that the gender imbalance needs to be addressed at these levels and will continue to dedicate time over the coming months to consider diversity.
