June is Pride Month!
Since the first Pride parade in 1970, Pride Month has grown to include more of the LGBTQ+ community and continues to evolve as our understanding of sexual orientation and identity grows.
Advantages of celebrating Pride Month at work for everyone:
- Celebrating Pride Month at work is not just a fun and festive way to show support for the LGBTQ+ community; it is also critical to creating an inclusive and respectful workplace.
- By actively acknowledging and celebrating diversity, we communicate to all employees that they are valued, respected and included, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity.
- Additionally, a workplace that supports and celebrates diversity is more likely to attract and retain top talent and foster innovation and creativity.
- By participating in Pride Month events at work, employees can educate themselves and learn about the experiences and challenges faced by the LGBTQ+ community.
Loomis UK is proud to celebrate having a diverse workforce. We welcome the contributions, ideas and innovation from people of different races, genders and sexualities.
So, let's everyone at Loomis UK come together this Pride Month and continue to build a workplace where everyone feels proud and comfortable to be themselves.
