Diversity & Inclusion

At Reed we value diversity, and are committed to having an inclusive culture across all areas of our business, where we can all feel safe to be ourselves at work

​We’re on a journey and proud to promote inclusion & diversity among clients, candidates and co-members. It’s the Reed Group’s policy to support people who hold protected characteristics both internally and externally. While legislation guides us, our motivation for positive change comes from a much simpler place – it’s the right, human thing to do.

Our commitment to diversity & inclusion

We support our co-members in developing safe, organic networks to share knowledge, support each other, and drive inclusion at work. Positive change is led by our co-members, for our co-members. We invite our co-members to complete unconscious bias training and inclusive management e-learning. We also have modules on wellbeing, inclusion and mindfulness. On top of this, we work towards an annual strategy featuring the below:
