Improving neurodiversity in the industry to bring a fresh perspective
Diversity is the presence of differences within a given setting. In the workplace that can mean differences in race, ethnicity, gender; something that can easily be visually assessed. However, there are also several other aspects such as religion, sexual orientation and neurodiversity that can bring positive and diverse thinking into an organisation.
Organisations which encourage an inclusive culture can really benefit from the environment this can create for its people – helping to support fresh thinking and new ideas. While there might not be a quick route to creating a formal Diversity & Inclusion strategy, there are three core actions – which are explored in this article - that organisations can focus on when taking their first steps.
Diversity and Inclusion: Aviva’s Black Lives Matters Action Plan
Aviva is committed to being a diverse and inclusive organisation but we recognise that we are still on a journey to reach that goal. We want our commitment to D&I to be reflected in our employees, customers, clients, and supply chain.
Pensions Management Institute appoints Aviva as Diversity & Inclusion Partner
The Pensions Management Institute (PMI) is pleased to announce that it has appointed Aviva as its Diversity & Inclusion Partner to raise awareness around the importance of these issues in workplaces across the industry.
The United Kingdom has become home to people from across the globe. Today, there are over 300 languages spoken in this country. In 2018, 6.1 million of the UK’s total population were non-British, and 3.7 million were born abroad. 17% of the country’s total workforce is born outside the UK. This is a particularly important point as it shows that we cannot think about the British public without having it at the forefront of our minds that we live in an incredibly diverse society; a society that consists of people from different backgrounds, beliefs, religions, languages, and culture, and that’s just racial diversity.
