084 | Practical EDI tips from a Top 50 Most Inclusive Employer, with Lisa Faulkner

Although the FSCS (Financial Services Compensation Scheme) is a relatively small organisation, employing around 250 people, the People team’s work in the Equity, Diversity and Inclusion space has led to it consistently ranking in the ‘Top 50 Most Inclusive Employers’ list.

In this episode of HR Coffee Time, their Head of People – Lisa Faulkner shares practical tips and advice for any organisation who wants to focus on EDI based on her experience within the FSCS.

Lisa’s advice includes:

1. Start small and then expand on what you’ve done so far.

2. Use internal and external data.

3. Set yourself realistic targets.

4. Turn to other organisations for advice and support.

5. Commit to charters.

6. Ask people throughout your organisation what will help them.

7. Consider the wider impact you can have on the local community and the world as a whole.
