FSB Devon are delighted to be sponsoring and supporting Exeter Pride this year. Come and find us on the FSB stand at the event on Saturday May 13th.

 

Why are we doing this?

 

The FSB wants to help drive and support a cultural change towards diversity in business and see a more equal and fair businesses environment.  Diversity in the workplace is important for both business owners and employees as it leads to greater innovation, improved attraction and retention of staff and a meritocratic culture.

 

Diversity means recognising and understanding that each individual is unique. When teams  of different ethnicities, genders and sexual orientation work together they bring together a variety of viewpoints and a wider range of experience which can lead to better understanding of the world in which we live.

 

“Diversity in the work place has many business benefits these have been confirmed repeatedly through both research and personal experience. There are still many employers who remain unaware of the real and lasting benefits of a diverse workforce.” Devon Vice Chair, Daniel Hillier

 

FSB Devon is committed to supporting diversity across the business spectrum.
