Diversity & Inclusion
Our Mission as a Diversity and Inclusion Team is to create a culture of belonging and respect, and appreciation for all individuals, regardless of any aspect of their identity. We believe that by fostering a sense of community and connection, we can build a stronger, more resilient organisation that is better equipped to meet the needs of our diverse stakeholders.
Diversity & Inclusion at Kilsaran
Kilsaran’s ever-growing and evolving Diversity and Inclusion Team was established in 2022 which contributes to the long term sustainability of Kilsaran.
In Early 2022, we partnered with Inclusio to help develop a diverse, equitable and inclusive workplace. The ‘Have Your Say’ programme was launched via the Inclusio Platform and allowed employees to anonymously participate in open discussion forums in which they could share what it is like to work in Kilsaran. It was due to the ‘Have Your Say’ programme that Kilsaran established a new team dedicated to Diversity and Inclusion. Our team have defined their Vision, Mission and Values which serve as guiding principles for our work in fostering diversity and inclusion.
