Why wouldn’t we have a diverse workforce? Why shouldn’t inclusivity be the goal of the telecoms industry?
We’ve published our Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Strategy, and a core part of that is our commitment to reach gender parity across the company by 2028.
A major step towards achieving this breakthrough for the telecoms industry will be our commitment to reach 50/50 representation within technical and engineering positions by 2027. We’re currently at more than a third representation of women in those roles.
That puts us ahead of others in the telecommunications industry thanks to creating an inclusive culture where everyone can thrive.
Inclusion wasn’t an afterthought for us – we aimed for an inclusive approach and a diverse workforce right from the start.
And diversity isn’t limited to gender, so our policies are focused on ensuring inclusion for all people from all walks of life – and particularly those that have long been excluded from our industry.
Diversity works. It works for us, and it’s essential if the telecom industry is going to keep working.
