Why are Inclusive Recruitment and Workplaces Important?

Inclusive recruitment involves sourcing and attracting candidates from various backgrounds and ensuring that the hiring process is free from biases and barriers that might unfairly exclude people. Beyond hiring, inclusive workplaces prioritise the creation of an atmosphere where every individual feels valued, respected, and empowered to contribute their unique perspectives and talents. Everyone should be able to read and understand content across your online platforms regardless of disability, visual impairment, cognitive or neurological disorder, or language barriers.

By embracing inclusive recruitment strategies and cultivating inclusive workplaces businesses can tap into unrivalled benefits including:

Tap into a wider talent pool including the 16 million people with a disability

Acquiring high-quality staff who are skilled, hardworking and loyal

Improved innovation thanks to the wider perspective you
gain by having a more diverse team

There is growing evidence that improved inclusion leads to increased revenue and profits

Showing customers and other businesses that you are committed to equality
