Caroline Parsons, HR director and director – Shared Services, WSP (ME)
“We’ve added a very clear statement into our prospects and tenders that we will be pursuing a workplace that is inclusive. We consciously encourage people to balance work, life and leisure, and we offer home working options wherever it is possible. We don’t just say work from home, we ask our people – what do you need to enable you to work from home? How do you set up your home office to be safe, healthy and enable you to do what you do need to do. The biggest and the most impactful thing we have done is bring it [WSP’s gender balance report] to the front of the conversation and to not be afraid to talk about diversity and inclusion in all of our workplaces.”
