The Equality Act 2010 provides the legal framework to advance equality and opportunity for all. Since being mandated, it has been widely observed that businesses have benefited financially from championing diversity and inclusivity. However, there are many other benefits that can be realised by developing a diverse workforce.

Beyond compliance and legal requirements, when properly harnessed and engaged, a diverse workforce which combines a variety of experience, perspectives and abilities can generate a plethora of benefits such as higher levels of innovation, productivity and increased staff retention. A long-term focus on diversity and inclusion should therefore tie into a business’s people plans as it will ultimately support the achievement of strategic goals.
