Both the <abbr title=\"Nuclear Decommissioning Authority\">NDA<\/abbr> and Sellafield Ltd are committed to improving respect and inclusion across their businesses.<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"external\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=6NXIxXzCiek\">Sellafield Ltd\u2019s Equality, Diversity and Inclusion survey video.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>David Peattie, <abbr title=\"Nuclear Decommissioning Authority\">NDA<\/abbr>\u2019s Chief Executive said:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"last-child\">The evidence on <abbr title=\"Equality, Diversity and Inclusion\">ED&amp;I<\/abbr> speaks for itself, as does the experience of businesses across the world. Organisations that take it seriously attract and keep the best people, perform better and are more successful. So treating everyone equally and with respect isn\u2019t just the right thing to do, it\u2019s good for our mission.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The findings will provide Sellafield Ltd with a great baseline on which to focus their efforts on improvements.<\/p>\n<p>One of the major areas of concern highlighted in the survey was that 1 in 4 people who responded said that bullying was tolerated in the workplace. The business needs to address this \u2013 because bullying and harassment is not acceptable in anyway.<\/p>\n<p>Jon Seddon, Finance Director and Chair of the newly established Sellafield Ltd EDI Council, said:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>We know that we need to take Equality, Diversity and Inclusion seriously. It is something that we\u2019ve neglected in the past, but it will be a big focus for us as the business transforms. And that\u2019s not because legislation says we have to, but because we know it\u2019s the right thing to do, both for the business and for individuals.<\/p>\n<p class=\"last-child\">It\u2019s clear from the results that we have been too quiet on <abbr title=\"Equality, Diversity and Inclusion\">ED&amp;I<\/abbr> in the past. There is much that requires deeper analysis, and we\u2019ll be working on that. The first thing that\u2019s clear is that we need to talk about <abbr title=\"Equality, Diversity and Inclusion\">ED&amp;I<\/abbr> more.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>One of the first areas Sellafield Ltd will focus on is mental health, with a campaign already launched to remove the stigma attached to mental health issues.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This month Sellafield Ltd shared the results of its Equality, Diversity and Inclusion survey with its workforce.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/89533"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=89533"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/89533\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=89533"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=89533"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=89533"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
