don't be a lady be a legend
Equity focuses on individuals including
everyone will create a happier and
healthy Workforce I embrace Equity I
think I think it's really important
because it provides access to the same
opportunities for everyone and it just
removes barriers so that certain groups
can achieve their full potential
just about giving everybody a toolbox
but giving everybody a toolbox that
suits their needs
embracing Equity means looking at the
accessibility of opportunity for all and
recognizing additional support may be
needed for some people Equity is making
sure everyone is measured equally
embracing Equity means going Beyond
inequality and making sure that
everybody has the same opportunities and
the same chance of the same starting
line only then what we find through
Equity Equity is important to me because
uh
it's a tough old world and it's the
right thing to do and we all want to be
treated and Affair and Equitable way
Equity is important to me because I
think if we have a Level Playing Field
where everybody is treated equally then
I think we give of our best and we can
be the best person that we can be racing
Equity means that we are designing and
building infrastructure that is suited
to the societies we live in embracing
Equity means we are building a fairer
world for everyone embracing Equity to
me means
creating and providing safe spaces where
everybody can Thrive and be their best
within their workplace it's about
everybody having opportunity I think
it's about acknowledging that some
people
have less barriers or no barriers to
those opportunities and actually
acknowledging that I want everything to
be fair it doesn't always mean equality
and I think the best example is that
like having a brick wall and not
everyone can have the same size step
because shorter people need a taller
step to be able to see everything so I
by having an internal value of personal
value being fair
Equity is really important especially
within the business
