FOUR COMMITMENTS TO CHANGE
Members join and work towards achieving these commitments
01 Org Icon
Set and publish targets for racial and ethnic minority representation on boards

Our campaign provides a platform to show commitment to the Parker-Tyler review and a peer group for business leaders to work together to understand the actions needed to increase representation in the boardroom.

02 Tile Icon
Set and publish targets for racial and ethnic minority representation at an executive level and minus-one pipeline

Action on board representation alone won’t deliver the change we want to see; we must also increase racial ethnic minority representation at leadership and talent pipeline levels.

03 Graph Icon
Publish a race action plan and ethnicity pay gap report within two years of joining

Transparency sends a message that you’re serious about progressing racial and ethnic minority representation. Reporting on your ethnicity pay gap encourages greater action and accountability on the inclusion of racial and ethnic minority talent throughout the talent pipeline, including in senior roles.

04 United Icon
Create an inclusive culture that allows talent to thrive

Your culture is more than your workforce. We encourage signatories to put processes in place that enable them to reflect the communities they serve and attract, retain and promote racial and ethnic minority talent.
