Acting on all levels for more diversity
Mirroring the society in which we operate, our ambition is to act on all fronts to enhance diversity in our organisations and combat all forms of discrimination. We strive to turn every Sixense employee, everywhere in the world, into an agent against discrimination. Our ambition is to contribute to a long-term change in mentalities so that everyone can find their place in society.
By raising awareness and implementing non-discriminatory procedures
To promote inclusion and prevent discrimination (gender, age, disability, origin, sexual orientation, etc.), we rely on:
- The implementation of non-discriminatory human resource processes (recruitment, training, promotion, mobility, remuneration, etc.)
- Raising awareness about anti-discrimination and inclusion practices among our employees
- Organising dedicated events
- Training our managers in anti-discrimination practices and promoting equal opportunities
We make sure we always hire the best person for the job, regardless of their background, gender or religion. In the UK, we have 10 different nationalities out of around 60 employees, and we are proud of the diversity of our workforce and the benefits that this mix of experience and ideas brings to the company. As part of the HS2 project, the highspeed rail link between London and Birmingham, we are encouraged to attend diversity and inclusion training and awareness sessions organised by the Supply Chain Sustainability School, an initiative set up by the UK construction industry. This helps us to further understand the advantages of working in a diverse team and to make Sixense a welcoming place to work for people of all backgrounds.
