We're incredible proud to be part of a scheme that is realising the potential of disabled people and recognises the talents they can bring to the workforce. It is something that we pass through to our clients as we continue to act for change in our local community and look to play a leading role in changing attitudes for the better.

As part of our Diversity and Inclusion actions, we are supporting the Civil Service in becoming the most inclusive employer in the UK by 2020.

Every day, civil servants do brilliant work to develop and deliver policies and services that affect the lives of people across the country and beyond. To do this effectively and fairly, the Civil Service must represent modern Britain in all its diversity. Evidence shows that diversity – of background, of life experience – brings different insights, creates challenge and encourages change and innovation. This in turn produces more accountable and trusted public services and better decisions – better because they are more attuned to the needs and interests of all of our communities.

We understand the Civil Service needs to reflect the diversity of the communities it serves. The Civil Service is at its best when it reflects the diversity of the country as a whole and is able to understand what the public needs. We get better services that work for everyone when they are developed and delivered by people who come from the diverse communities we serve.

Yolk is committed to supporting the Civil Service’s ambition to become the most inclusive employer by 2020 and to:

  • Continue to increase the representation of currently under-represented groups at all levels across the Civil Service; and

  • Focus on inclusion to build our culture and reputation as a place that attracts, develops, retains and fully engages all the diverse talent across our organisation.

We will do this by:

  • Establishing and maintaining a comprehensive Talent Acquisition strategy, which resonates and engages with a diverse range of high-quality prospective recruits.

  • Supporting our client’s to improve their attractiveness to a diverse range of potential candidates.

  • Monitoring adverse impact in the selection process, examining and improving recruitment processes to maintain an appropriate spread of diversity at each selection stage to increase likelihood of diverse hires being appointed.

  • Promote the Civil Service as an inclusive employer, driving inclusiveness as an essential quality in prospective candidates.

  • Ensuring our client’s maintain a fair recruitment selection basis for the comparison of talent.

  • In line with the specific requirements of the framework, we include anonymous diversity and inclusion questionaires as part of our candidate registration process. We provide management information reporting to our clients and to Crown Commercial Service on our overall response rates and ratios of candidates with protected characteristics. 

Yolk ensures the same principles are followed in our own business; we encourage a diverse application pool, our processes are fair and transparent and we embrace a diverse workforce.
