Inclusion and diversity
Our three core aims
We’re committed to creating an environment where everyone is comfortable bringing their true selves to work. Across our global business we’re focused on three vital aspects of inclusion and diversity:
Gender Equity, Race and All Abilities.
Let us show you how.
Building a gender-balanced workforce
We fully support the United Nations Women’s Empowerment Principles and we’re committed to achieving balanced representation.
As a member of the Yildiz Holding Women’s Platform, we’re growing our female employees in leadership networks, providing mentoring and development for female colleagues, and seeking out prospective female employees in all our markets.
Welcoming colleagues from all backgrounds
We want to shape a world where every voice is heard. This means ensuring our business is reflective of the communities we serve, and that differences are valued and celebrated.
Creating an inclusive environment for all abilities
We’re moving forward each day with new initiatives to help our colleagues thrive and perform, including:
- Joining the Valuable 500 – the global movement that puts disability on the business leadership agenda
- Continuously updating our recruitment policy and processes to ensure fair assessments and accessibility to roles
- Establishing our global advisory board, bringing together leaders in the field of inclusion and diversity to challenge our thinking and support our journey
Our IDE Board
We set up our Global Inclusion, Diversity and Equity (IDE) Board in February 2021, which champions our pladis IDE agenda with insights from both senior pladis leaders and renowned external experts, including Ade Adepitan MBE, Alastair Campbell, Dame Kelly Holmes and Stevie Spring CBE.
Hear directly from our IDE Board about our ambitions for the future and the progress we’re making as we continue to shape an even more inclusive and equitable culture at pladis.
