Call to safeguard equality, diversity and inclusion

The EDI Committee urges professionals, employers and industry leaders to take proactive steps

The CIBSE Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) Committee has published a call to action on how the industry can respond to a rollback of EDI initiatives in some American businesses, following policy reversals in the US.

This raises concerns about the implications for multinational companies, including those in the building services and construction sectors.

The EDI Committee urges professionals, employers and industry leaders to take proactive steps, including: reaffirming a commitment to EDI; maintaining EDI initiatives; supporting employee networks; showcasing diverse role models; and encouraging inclusive recruitment practices.
