Looking to improve profitability, innovation and well-being? This Charter will help....
Having taken soundings from across the industry, The Equilibrium Network has launched an incredibly useful Charter to help organisations working across the built environment develop strategies for improving and monitoring their gender diversity.
The aim is, that by adopting the Charter, organisations will improve their profitability, innovation and well-being through gender diversity. To this end, organisations are being asked to sign up to a pilot study.
The intention is, that over the course of six-months, participating organisations will track progress to see whether adopting the Charter is making a difference to their businesses, and identify how easy (or not) the Charter is to implement.
If you would like to take part in the pilot, you will need to register with The Equilibrium Network to request a copy of the Charter. You will also need to complete the metrics questionnaire which gives baseline data against which the pilot will be measured.
The deadline for joining the pilot is 31 January 2018, although the responses to the metrics questionnaire are not needed before 15 February 2018.
The Charter looks at eight different aspects of business development, under three key headings:
1 Cultural Commitment
Championing diversity
Transparency and feedback
2 External Relations
Project opportunities
Marketing and business activities
3 HR and Behaviours
Recruitment
Salary and promotion
Flexible working
Training and mentoring
