Capgemini UK is number 1 in the Inclusive Top 50 UK Employers List 2021/22!

IN RECOGNITION of our continued dedication to workplace inclusion, Capgemini UK has been ranked first in The Inclusive Top 50 UK Employers List 2021/22 – a definitive list of  the most inclusive UK-based organisations, shining a light on best practice across different  strands of diversity, throughout different stages and levels of employment.

Head of Employee Experience and Inclusion at Capgemini UK, Bal Gill, commented: “We’re super proud to have our efforts recognised and be in the Inclusive Top 50 Employers list for the second year running – as we work hard to put inclusion at the heart of our hybrid working world.”

111 organisations participated in 2021, providing evidence on topics including recruitment procedures, training, workforce data and a host of diversity-related initiatives. An independent advisory panel of Diversity & Inclusion experts have reviewed and analysed each submission, determining the rankings of each organisation.

“More employers have seen their people step forward to be heard and contribute to their inclusion agenda like never before, with inclusive leadership leading at the forefront and prompting employers to examine their shortcomings internally” said Inclusive Companies Founder and CEO, Paul Sesay. “Companies featured on this year’s list have felt the importance of ensuring individual voices are heard and standing up as responsible employers against inequality, injustice and intolerance.”

D&I architect and judge Toby Mildon, added; “It’s important to recognise all of the hard work that businesses are doing to create more inclusive workplaces and Inclusive Companies do a great job of sharing best practice through the Inclusive Top 50 UK Employers List.”

In Capgemini, we formed our Active Inclusion programme in 2016 to move the conversation beyond diversity: engaging our people in a conscious culture and mindset change for inclusion. We are committed to making a step change; for us, inclusion starts with everyone, from the way we conduct ourselves to how we engage with others. Everyone has a role to play: our focus is on driving action through engagement – from altering processes to inspiring everyday individual changes. Over the last 20 months, we have shown resilience and agility while continuing to drive our inclusion strategy throughout, listening and engaging to mitigate the longer-term impact of the pandemic on our people. Sustainable change takes time; with our continued focus on active inclusion, we are building not just a ‘new normal’ but a ‘better normal’ for all to feel included and thrive.
