Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Together
Colleagues within our Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Together group have recently been working on a new internal EDI Policy, which has now been shared with our entire workforce.
We also wanted to publicly share a summary statement, that draws some key points from the full policy…
- We are passionate about equality, diversity and inclusion here at the MioCare Group. We want to do more and have a deep sense of pride in challenging inequality in all its forms.
- We do not accept nor tolerate racism or discrimination of any kind and where we see it, we work to challenge and prevent it. We will not shirk our responsibilities in creating an inclusive organisation that is right for every colleague and person we support.
- MioCare takes pride in its values and culture, with people being treated fairly and with dignity and respect.
- We will work closely alongside the people we support, our colleagues and in our communities to make sure we deliver services in a way that meets their needs.
- We will promote equality, value diversity and encourage inclusion in everything that we do and through everyone we work alongside.
- We will call out bias, challenge our thinking and behaviours and share our experiences. And we will listen to, support and champion the needs of under-represented colleagues and people we support.
In line with our #FutureFocus strategy, and building on some of the other policies that have been updated and published across the MioCare Group this year, this is a really key one.
Look out for some photos and video on our social media channels as EDIT group members talk openly about the importance of embedding the policy within our services and day-to-day work.
