This is a plan for everyone – for all our staff, for those we hope will join us in the future and ultimately for our audiences across the UK and beyond.
The ±«Óãtv’s public purpose, and its global reach and reputation, draw people to work with us from all corners of the world and from very different backgrounds. But we know that not everyone’s experience matches their expectations, or is as fulfilling as it should be. We know we’re not getting the most from some of the brilliant and talented people we attract, or that we lose them far too early.
Our staff, and some willing external participants, generously gave us their views as part of the review of our previous Diversity and Inclusion Strategy (2016-2020). The new three-year plan introduced in this document is based on their feedback.
I hope these commitments show that we’re serious about the action we must take to be more representative of our audiences and to create a more inclusive working environment where each person feels welcomed, valued and can thrive. We have a lot of work to do to meet this ambition.
