Audit
An important gateway to integrating inclusivity and equality best practice into an organisation’s processes and policies
When the principles and best practices of DEI are embedded in systemic ways in firms, they should enhance equality of opportunities for all employees. However, this is not always the case – in many companies’ certain processes remain inequitable, leading to group differences and representation gaps in senior positions.
Our DEI audit report provides insights into how different groups progress through the employee life cycle. It exposes strengths and weaknesses and identifies DEI risks and their potential impact on your organisation. We recommend ways to manage risks by sharing emerging practices and guidance for targeted interventions to bring increasing fairness within the procedures and processes of your institutional systems.
