Race Equality Week is from 5th - 11th February.
The theme for this year is #ListenActChange.
At the EmbRace Network's live webinar on Tuesday 6th February 2023 at 11am, we'll explore GC's commitment to racial equity, and the actions we'll be taking to support the inclusion, progression and retention of colleagues from diverse ethnic communities and what we can do as managers, colleagues and allies.
Attend if you want to:
- Look in more detail at our statistics, survey and focus group feedback from an ethnic community perspective – and the actions we'll be taking following this feedback, including Our iMentor programme, cultural sensitivity/awareness training for managers and more.
- Hear from a member of our Organisational Development team who'll provide a deeper look at our 'Dignity at Work Policy' – covering how to make a complaint and what happens after this, including the support available throughout and after the complaints process.
- Listen to our guest speaker who'll provide a brief look at inclusive recruitment practices to aid hiring managers in building representative teams and the key principles required to ensure cultural ambience within teams and or projects.
The EmbRace Network will close the event by unveiling their updated 'Racial Equity Framework' and a brief look at their planned events for 2024/2025 – including 'Refugee Week', 'South Asian Heritage Month', International, 'Day for Human Solidarity', 'Holodomor' and many more.
We look forward to welcoming all colleagues, and together we can #ListenActChange
