Our ambition: unlocking talent through disability inclusion
The World Health Organization estimates that there are one billion people in the world currently living with a disability. That’s about 15% of the global population, or 1 in 7 of us. And the statistics suggest that people living with disabilities are among the most marginalised populations in the world in terms of employment and educational opportunity.
Removing the barriers facing people living with disability is a priority for our business. It isn’t just the right thing to do – we believe that creating equality of opportunity will unlock a huge pool of talent. It also gets to the heart of the ambition to ‘leave no one behind’ – and could contribute to the five Sustainable Development Goals which explicitly reference disability and to the wider sustainable development agenda.
In 2018, we set ourselves global commitments to achieve by 2025:
- to be the number one employer of choice for people with disabilities, and
- to increase the number of employees with disabilities to 5% of our total workforce.
These are ambitious targets. They involve transforming the way we recruit and train our people. And they mean adapting both the way we work and our workplaces, so that we can support people with disabilities to reach their full potential.
"We cannot be an inclusive organisation unless we ensure that we have created the conditions
and the culture for people with a disability to thrive."
Leena Nair, our Chief HR Officer
We are keen to find out about your talent, and offer the support you need.
