Why is Diversity, Equity and Inclusion so important for us at the Benefact Group?
We want everyone across our Group to feel a genuine sense of belonging, to know that we are all valued and included. Inclusion naturally generates diversity and we know that businesses that create and nurture inclusive cultures and respect for individual differences are more successful and sustainable.
We all belong
We’ve coined the phrase “we all belong” because it reinforces our belief that inclusion runs through everything we do, all of the time.
Our inclusive culture is a source of great strength and we want to celebrate it and continue to challenge ourselves to help it grow.
