DEI&B Executive Statement
DEI&B Executive Statement
At Markerstudy we recognise that our strength lies in the diversity of our people. As an Executive team, we are personally committed to cultivating a working environment where our colleagues feel they belong, are valued, respected, and can be their authentic selves, which reflects the customers and communities
we serve.
Together, we are unified in supporting a culture that fosters innovation, creativity, and diverse approaches to problem-solving. We recognise diversity comes in many forms, including, but not limited to, race, ethnicity, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, educational and socio-economic background, disability, skills, tenure, geographic, and professional backgrounds.
Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Belonging (DEI&B) is an important part of our business strategy to ensure the long-term success of Markerstudy.
While we have made great progress, we understand true equity and inclusion require ongoing effort and a commitment to removing barriers.
We promise to:
-
Allocate resources for DEI&B activities.
-
Set clear goals and accountability measures.
-
Incorporate DEI&B objectives into performance measures.
-
Implement mandatory DEI&B training.
-
Review talent acquisition practices to ensure fairness.
-
Continuously learn and improve through feedback and measurement.
During 2025, we will collect data to understand our diversity profile, identify gaps and set meaningful diversity aims.
