DE&I should be the cornerstone of any recruitment strategy. As a recruiter we have an important part to play in promoting diversity and advising on and practicing fair and inclusive recruitment processes.
With our own dedicated DE&I committee, we have a commitment to the promotion of DE&I. This includes working with hiring organisations on their own diversity initiatives, leading conversations through our events and education program, ensuring our own working environment is as inclusive as possible, and collaborating on initiatives like Programme One, which aims to recruit more black recruits into our own industry.
Diversity, equity & inclusion: why it matters for businesses
A diverse workforce has been shown time and time again to improve productivity, creativity and innovation which ultimately leads to better success.
It is a key factor in employee retention with more than half of Europe’s employees saying that working with a diverse group of people contributes to their happiness at work.
Moreover, recent studies have shown that consumers are more likely to trust and support brands that demonstrate commitment to societal issues such as diversity and inclusion.
Even though in Germany we consistently rank in the top 5 of the world for the most-inclusive workforce within the Kantar Inclusion Index, there is still work to be done. A fair and inclusive recruitment process is foundational in building diversity in your business.

I want to be part of the change that is happening around us. Being part of TA allows me to really show my passion for people and being part of the LGBTQ+ community has meant I want to ensure everyone can be recognised for their potential contribution.
