Taking the lead on employee experience

Everyone deserves to work for a company that’s diverse, inclusive, and allows each and every individual to bring their true selves to work. However, some businesses are better than others at supporting their employees, particularly those who are LGBTQIA+.

Colt is recognized as one of the world’s most inclusive employers that is taking the lead on employee experience, with a commitment to pioneering change.

The company values the different perspectives brought by its diverse global teams and is building a culture where everyone can thrive, and have a fair chance to develop and progress throughout their Colt career.

Embedding inclusion into company policies

With four strategic pillars: leadership and governance, inclusive culture, diverse representation, and equitable business practices, Colt is a world leader for LGBTQIA+ inclusion.

As a company, Colt focuses on ‘Actioning Inclusion’.

“Our collaborative approach sees our DEI team and Pride Matters – our global LGBTQ+ and allies’ network – working on building safe spaces, raising awareness, and embedding inclusion into our policies and ways of working,” says Caroline.

“Our compassionate leave policy recognizes chosen family and we have educated colleagues on allyship. We’ve introduced a Transitioning at Work policy and guidance because feeling safe, supported, and included at work is everyone’s right. We also partner with other tech businesses to support the LGBTQIA+ community and drive change because no one organization can do this alone,” she adds.
