“Another standard is Workplace Culture Fosters Inclusion and Belonging for All. To help make this happen at your company, the standards recommend that (1) a formal anti-bias and anti-racism policy is adopted and operationalized (with key terms that hold everyone accountable), and (2) workers have access to an anonymous reporting and communication channel to raise issues. In addition, (3) businesses should co-create and codify cultural norms with the workforce that encourage equity, inclusion, and belonging, which can be assessed through (4) evaluating culture and engagement survey responses across demographic groups, (5) monitoring attrition rates across demographic groups, and (6) tracking workforce controversies, and how quickly and effectively they are addressed when they do occur.”

Thanks Tunde Hinton for another amazing learning and networking opportunity through Connex Leadership Networks . This was a favourite of mine as I got to meet the absolute queen of social housing justice Lara Oyedele ✊🏽 🍉. Among other topics, we delved deep into what needs to happen to improve the identification, selection and appointment of a more diverse pool of talent into the industry. #Attraction and #Recruitment: In construction the application-to-hiring ratio is notably higher for ethnic minority groups (90:1) compared to white applicants (28:1), making it on average three times more challenging to secure a position. People who make up the global ethnic majority are not a conglomerate and there is variance in this picture that warrants further exploration and consideration. When broken down it is between 1.2 to 6.4 times harder for people of colour to be hired than their white counterparts highlighting the unearned and unjustified benefits of proximity to whiteness and the pernicious nature of anti-black racism. It was great to be in a room full of people dedicated to changing this but achieving parity won't happen without intentionality. We need to take action and break away from the "business as usual" mindset. Evyan Davis-George; Lubna Haq; Ninesh Muthiah; Puneet Rajput; Rachel Hadley; Patricia Hay-Justice and Abiola Adegoke
