The reaccreditation has been awarded by the National Centre for Diversity, which aims to advance fairness for all in the workplace by helping organisations to embed best Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) practices.

Link’s director of HR and business support, Helen Bayne, said: “We are delighted to have been reaccredited in this worthwhile and important organisational accolade.

“The reaccreditation demonstrates Link’s ongoing commitment to nurturing a fair and equal culture to benefit colleagues and customers.

“As part of this commitment, we have put in place a flourishing equality, diversity and inclusion group which steers EDI activities and practices across the organisation.”

In the report, which outlines the key findings from the one-day reaccreditation for Link Group, Link received praise for having leaders who support an inclusive culture and for having a strong acceptance of people from diverse backgrounds across all levels in the organisation.

Link will be reviewed for further reaccreditation from the National Centre for Diversity in April 2020.
