It’s National Inclusion Week! Founded by Inclusive Employers, it’s a week dedicated to all things inclusive at work, and this year's theme is: Impact Matters. When it comes to integrating inclusion in your business, impact really does matter. But superficial efforts or outdated policies lead to disengagement, low motivation and legal headaches. That’s why measuring the impact of your inclusion efforts is crucial, helping to drive real change, fostering a genuinely inclusive culture and ensuring everyone feels valued and respected! Rochelle Murinas MCIPD, has outlined how to measure the impact of inclusion in your business. Click here to find out more. 👇 https://lnkd.in/grbEgNyx #NationalInclusionWeek

As we gear up for National Inclusion Week that takes place 23rd – 29th September, rediscovering the transformative benefits of inclusion has never been more vital. Despite widespread awareness of the benefits of diversity and inclusion, there remains a significant gap between intention and action. Studies revealed that 𝘄𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗲 𝟵𝟰% 𝗼𝗳 𝗲𝘅𝗲𝗰𝘂𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗮 𝗱𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗹𝘂𝘀𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝗰𝗿𝘂𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗯𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝘀𝘂𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀, 𝗼𝗻𝗹𝘆 𝟮𝟰% 𝗼𝗳 𝗲𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗼𝘆𝗲𝗲𝘀 𝗳𝗲𝗹𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝗵𝗮𝗱 𝗺𝗮𝗱𝗲 𝗺𝗲𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴𝗳𝘂𝗹 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗮. This disconnect points to a critical issue: many organisations are stuck in the performative stage of inclusion, where initiatives are launched but not sustained, and diverse voices are invited to the table but not truly heard. With all of that said and in line with the true purpose of National Inclusion Week—to promote lasting and impactful change—we remind ourselves of the true meaning of inclusion, which goes beyond superficial practices to embrace diversity in a meaningful and sustainable way across all aspects of the workplace.

Why are we still in a world where Body Art is still sometimes seen as a negative reflection of someone's professionalism? 🤔 National Inclusion Week gives organisations the opportunity to celebrate inclusion and place focus on their inclusion and diversity agendas, so this year we're talking to some of our colleagues about their own body art and modifications. From the stories behind their choices to the prejudice sometimes felt or experienced, our goal is to continue to ensure that our colleagues can come to work being their authentic selves.

As we celebrate National Inclusion Week 2024 (23rd-29th Sept), it’s a time to reflect on how we can all work together to foster a culture of belonging. Inclusion is more than just a buzzword—it’s the foundation of communities where everyone, regardless of background, ability, or identity, feels seen, heard, and valued. This year’s theme, "Building Bridges", emphasizes the importance of creating connections that transcend differences. Within every day life and workplaces we all have a role to play in making sure that diversity is celebrated and inclusion is practiced.
