This year’s National Inclusion Week runs from 26th September to 2nd October, on the theme “Time to Act: The Power of Now”
At Sir Robert McAlpine, we are committed to creating an inclusive culture where everyone can be themselves, because we want our people to feel happy and realise their full potential.
During National Inclusion Week, we will be celebrating our inclusion journey to date, sharing a wealth of resources and information with our people, and giving them the chance to get involved in some thought provoking sessions.
This includes a key note virtual session on the topic of 'workplace banter' by comedian, writer, campaigner and inclusion expert, Simon Fanshawe.
We have also lined up a series of drop-in sessions for our people with our seven Affinity Networks. Made up of people from across the business, the networks exist to ensure everyone has a voice and feels represented. They have played a key role in our inclusion journey to date, helping to shape strategy, policy and training across the business:
Finally, our partners at Maggie's will host a session on how we can support our friends and colleagues who are affected by cancer.
This week is an opportunity for us to celebrate the significant strides we have made in recent years in ensuring that we are an inclusive place to work.
Everyone is welcome at Sir Robert McAlpine!
