Here at The Adecco Group UK & Ireland, our #Ethnicity forum continue to celebrate Black History Month. In their third Food for Thought Session today, Friday 20th October at 12:30pm, they discuss the topic of “Colourism”. They’ll explain what it means, why there is an underlying system of privilege and discrimination based on skin tone within members of the same ethnic group, how skin-tone bias can affect racial equality at work, and what we can do to create a cultural shift to change this. We're serious about inclusion, but we're even more passionate about creating a place where you belong. #LifeAtTAG #BlackHistoryMonth2023 #BlackHistory #SalutingOurSisters #diversity #inclusion #DiversityAndInclusion #talentnotlabels #TalentNotLabels #Coffee #Morning #Brunch #MakingTheFutureWorkForEveryone #makingthefutureworkforeveryone #business #BlackBusiness #BusinessOwner #BlackBusinesses #BlackBusinessWomen #belonging #life

DIVERSITY? EQUALITY? INCLUSION? What does that even mean to your reality? Are we creating workplaces; marketplaces that do celebrate their Black People (Adults and children) and even going further at acknowledging that some shoes do not fit all. How fair and just are your policies and processes in your company?

What does Black History Month mean to you? Our member Timothy sums it up simply: freedom and inclusion for people of color. Take a listen. #BlackHistoryMonth #freedomforall #civilrights #socialjustice #equality #diversity #inclusion #diversityandinclusion #inclusionmatters #empowerment #unityindiversity #peoplewithdisabilities

Black Inclusion Week, taking place on the 13th to the 19th May, is an annual event that creates a platform for change to enable true equality for Black people. With this year's theme of 'Empowered for change: Building a better future together', reflecting on how we can enhance the Black community's quality of work life is crucial. We need to amplify diverse voices, build authentic connections, and guarantee equal access for all. Inclusivity means more than just opening doors; it ensures everyone can walk through them safely. To drive inclusion, it's crucial to ensure that all your employees feel valued and supported. This not only increases engagement but also enables you to attract a diverse talent pool, creating an environment where everyone feels respected and included, regardless of their race or background. Don't wait for change to happen. Be the catalyst for it. Your voice today has the power to shape a better tomorrow.

We’re sharing more key quotes from our Black Paper on Equalism this week. Here’s today’s quote: "The power and beauty of a society based upon equality is that each community designs and builds for itself, supported by systems which facilitate this flexibility and adaptability, to meet the needs of every individual in society, equally." What does an equal world look like to YOU? Drop your thoughts in the comments.

“The piecemeal approaches we see as an attempt to drive change fail because there’s no big picture vision into which all the pieces of the puzzle can be slotted." Equalism provides that vision - or one vision. At Mission Equality, we don’t assume we have all the answers, but we’re asking the right questions, and encouraging others to do so too.

I am looking forward to receiving my copy of this book. I know it will be powerful. This is the world we were born into.

Today we commemorate Juneteenth, a pivotal moment in American history that marks the end of slavery in the United States. This day reminds us of the importance of freedom, equality, and the ongoing commitment to justice for all. Watch the below video from our parent company Advanced Group to learn more about #Juneteenth.

Habee Hamilton sheds light on the often unspoken and uncomfortable aspects of allyship, emphasising the importance of fostering allyship within the Black community itself. According to Habee, it is crucial for us to examine how we support and uplift one another, how we unite as a community, and how we actively engage with each other to drive collective progress. Habee suggests that in order to truly grow as an ally, you must be willing to confront and navigate deep discomfort, ultimately becoming comfortable with the challenges that arise from it.   Habee is the Diversity and Inclusion Director at Mahogany Inclusion Partners. #BIW2023 #blackinclusionweek #blackinclusionweek2023 #blackinclusion #diversity #diversityandinclusion #togetherinaction #blackexcellence #dei #racialequity #allyship
