THE INCLUSiViTY PROJECT
Diversity enriches business.
‘Workplace inclusivity’ means having a diverse range of staff, maximising their potential and looking after their different wellbeing needs.
At The Inclusivity Project, we want to help small to medium-sized Cornish businesses gain the value of workers of different ages, abilities, and health conditions.
We have done this in two ways:
- By doing research, led by the University of Exeter.
- By funding ideas from local businesses.
We have put these two perspectives together with the voices from our partner organisations’ lived experience.
Here are three digital resources for you to learn from, explore, and share.
1. Bias and inclusive recruitment: What you need to know, and do
2. Policy and inclusion: Changing the system through problem-solving conversations
3. Hybrid work: How small businesses can ‘bounce forward’
Small-to-medium sized Cornish Business? Great!
The Inclusivity Project has been about listening to you.
It has been shown that big corporations profit when they create inclusivity. Now it’s time to hear the small business perspective in our region.
Cornwall has more older people than ever before. And they want to work. Disabled people, and people with long-term health conditions, also want to work – and keep working, despite Coronavirus forcing them take extra care.
The Inclusivity Project has been researching how employers like you will adapt. Could the remodelling of your work life with Covid-19 be a chance to remake your approach to people with better diversity?
It is our aim to use the evidence base of the last 3 years to provide practical tools to help you grow your company’s approach to people.
