There needs to be a clear statement of support for diversity and inclusiveness from the top of the organization. That statement must be clear and it must be reflected in all of the activities that the organization engages in. For example, it should be part of the training. It should be part of the selection and the promotion system. It should be part of our community outreach.
There should be a clear declaration that the service values diversity and seeks inclusiveness. An employer who is hoping to encourage people to consider them as an employer of choice needs to be able to make clear that they value diversity, that it is a safe and inclusive workplace, that it's a disciplined organization that respects human rights, and that they will take immediate action if they're made aware of any contravention.
