WHY INCLUSIVITY – WHY MADE EQUAL

Across the UK manufacturing and engineering sector, there are widespread concerns regarding an ageing workforce and an insufficient number of skilled people. The sectors also lags behind others with regards to the number of females and individuals from diverse backgrounds or with disabilities it employs. The availability of a strong talent pool is crucial to enable employers like you to improve productivity and grow more quickly.

An inclusive and diverse workforce allows organisations to benefit from a variety of views and perspectives, allowing them to find more creative solutions and harness different talents to be more successful. It is proven that organisations that are more diverse and inclusive perform better and are ultimately more profitable.

For this reason, Made Equal and the Inclusivity campaign aims to take member companies on a Journey to Inclusivity, with the goal of increasing productivity, profitability and future proofing your workforce with a focus on mental and physical wealth.
