The aim of these unique national Awards is to publicly recognise organisations which have some genuine commitment to equality of opportunity and diversity within their working environment. The ultimate objective is to effect organisational change through consistent, positive achievements, both internal and external. This annual event is open to organisations of any size in the commercial, public and voluntary sectors, which have been either specially selected by staff and advisers of AnSer House of Marlow UK or have applied independently to be considered.
Entries can relate to any Category to show specific achievements.
Small organisations, with less than 1000 staff, are judged separately. Most relevant is anything unique or unusual introduced within the organisation, which has had a positive influence and good outcome on diversity management, staff recruitment and maintenance. Any ONE idea, concept or project qualifies and the results should also be relatively easy to observe and measure. The emphasis is on being able to deal more effectively and empathically with a growing multicultural community. This training could apply to women returners, for example, disabled and minority workers who are inadequately qualified, or the unemployed.
