In this episode, we’re joined by Bobbi Pickard, CEO of Trans in the City, to discuss how employers can improve their approach to trans and non-binary inclusion in the workplace.

We explore questions like:

Is the term LGBTQIA+ a help or a hindrance?What does trans and non-binary actually mean?Are gender-critical beliefs protected by law?Is the law fit for purpose, and how might it change in the future?What does best practice look like?

We discuss the importance of vocalising a clear position on trans and non-binary inclusion and educating staff. We also discuss the benefits of creating a safe and welcoming environment, from recruiting the best talent to allowing people to do their best work.

As Bobbi says, it takes years to change a company’s culture, but today’s graduates are already exploring their identities and have high expectations about equality, diversity and inclusion.
