Discover our ED&I targets and commitments

As of December 2021, we announced a set of ambitious targets and commitments to significantly progress our new equity, diversity and inclusion strategy over the next ten years.

Shared Accountability

Our ED&I strategy belongs to all our people – everyone helped to create it and each of us is entrusted to help shape its future. ED&I is an accelerator for our continued journey to becoming the purpose-led, future-proof, growth-oriented organisation we want to be. It’s enterprise-wide, impacting our current and future employees, our customers, our supply chain, and our communities. Equity, diversity and inclusion are vital to us achieving our purpose.

UK Gender Pay Gap Reports

We employ a relatively small proportion of our global workforce in the UK, and each of the two businesses through which we employ people has fewer than the 250-person threshold for reporting. However, we believe in the principles of fair pay and progression, and so we have decided to voluntarily publish our gender pay statistics for our UK employee population. Find out more in the Gender Pay Report 2022.
