What does inclusion at work look like for First Nations workers? Despite growing support for First Nations rights in Australia since our first #InclusionIndex in 2017, First Nations workers’ experience with exclusion and inclusion at work remains concerning. First Nation workers continue to experience high levels of exclusion and less respect at work in 2023. Furthermore, workplace exclusion is high from sources both inside and outside an organisation. Make sure to read the latest Inclusion @ Work Index now for more findings and a case for D&I action at work. 👉 https://ow.ly/rFFb50S1tXq #NRW2024 #NationalReconciliationWeek #Reconciliation #TheCaseForInclusion #InclusionAtWork #InclusionIndex #DiversityandInclusion #DiversityEquityInclusion #GenderEquality #GenderEquity #Allyship #BusinessAustralia #HumanResources #Leadership #InclusiveLeadership #InclusionMatters #DiversityCouncilAustralia

I can't help but think Esther McVey, the Government's "Minister of Common Sense", is displaying anything but. Reducing the EDI agenda to what is statutorily required will take away many of its (well evidenced) benefits. Good work on #equality, #diversity and #inclusion extends way beyond the Equality Act 2010 and into creating high performing organisations that are truly welcoming places to work. Not just ones that don't discriminate. Whatever next? Telling organisations they should stop caring about #engagement or #wellbeing? 🙄 At Culture Consultancy we work with organisations that care about their attraction, retention and productivity and appreciate how #equality, #diversity and #inclusion can help these crucial business outcomes. I've written a blog to help such organisations start, or accelerate, their journey - see the link in the comments #PsychologicalSafety #WorkplaceWellbeing #CultureOfCare #MentalHealthMatters #UKMentalHealthWeek #CultureConsultancy #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek #DEI #WellbeingAtWork

The Equality Imperative for Business and Organisations As a fundamental, the UK Equality Act (2010) provides an imperative for organisations to protect employees from discrimination. However, substantive evidence shows that diversified and more inclusive organisations are more productive, including: Creative, efficient, effective and/or profitable. To assist you, we are excited to launch a new series of courses to help you with the following: - How can I recruit and retain a more diversified workforce? - How can I promote employee awareness of the equality necessity? - How can I reduce bias in the organisation for more effective inclusive working? - How can I promote more competent cross culture working with clients? - How can I enable my staff to reduce stress and promote better mental wellbeing?

"Governments, communities, and businesses have an opportunity to build lasting relationships with people across Australia to create an inclusive society. Doing so requires an understanding of the barriers creating exclusion. These barriers can be removed with one basic principle: ask the people you want to include. They will tell you. They will also offer the solutions." We are proud to be the academic and promotion partner for the 'Inclusion Compass' produced by the Centre for Inclusive Design, and The Lab Insight & Strategy. The report provides a rare look into how inclusive Australian society really is. It reveals what Australians are saying about our major institutions and society and offers solutions for government and business on how to create a fully fair and inclusive country.

Practice of EQUITY at workplace Difference between Equity and Equality. Equality involves treating all employees the same way.

A recent Oxford report has confirmed that most Britons are onboard with EDI efforts. However, the report highlights a crucial point: while support is strong, there's a call for these initiatives to better reflect people's day-to-day realities.   It's a clear signal that the journey towards true equality isn't just about ticking boxes; it's about creating meaningful change that resonates with everyone.
