Diversity Council Australia (DCA) is inviting expressions of interest for its 2024-2025 Inclusive Employer Index, offering organisations across Australia the opportunity to show their commitment to creating an inclusive workplace.
DCA's Inclusive Employer Index, produced in partnership with Diversity Atlas, gives participating employers the opportunity to map and track the state of diversity and inclusion in their organisation. Participants collect valuable data by administering a comprehensive survey within their organisation. They receive access to an interactive dashboard with their results, allowing a comparison to different benchmarks: the Australian workforce, other DCA members, and where applicable within their industry.
Employers who exceed the national index benchmark on a series of measures will be recognised as a 2024-2025 Inclusive Employer and are publicly promoted. They can also demonstrate their commitment to diversity and inclusion by proudly displaying the Inclusive Employers logo for the 2024-2025 period, showcasing their recognition by DCA.
Last year, a record 82 organisations across the nation were recognised for their commitment to diversity and inclusion, representing a broad range of employers from art galleries and sporting bodies to pharmaceutical and agricultural machinery manufacturers.
