Barhale are taking part in National Inclusion Week 2020

28th September 2020

We are promoting and supporting National Inclusion Week 2020. The campaign, running from 28th September – 4th October 4th 2020, was created by Inclusive Employers and aims to raise awareness of inclusion in the workplace. Now in its eighth year, the 2020 theme for National Inclusion Week is Each One Reach One. It is about bringing people and organisations together to connect and inspire each other to make inclusion an everyday reality. Together, we will build the biggest inclusion chain ever.

Equality, Diversity and Inclusion have always been fundamental within Barhale. From the top to bottom, we recognise the importance of our people coming from a diverse spread of race, creed, colour, gender and nationality. We are keen to create an environment where difference is respected, accepted and valued and we feel fortunate to think of ourselves as having a kaleidoscope of people, all collaborating and contributing in their own ways to the success of the business.

Amongst some of the activities Barhale has planned for National Inclusion Week are webinars covering topics exploring gender, sexual orientation and LGBTQIA terminology and history as well as unconscious bias. We will also be encouraging our staff to consider and share what makes them feel included and to take part in an Inclusivi-tea event involving grabbing a cup of tea and reaching out to a colleague.
