By signing up to the Charter Mark we have committed to steps to address areas of unequal gender representation at all levels: removing obstacles faced by women at key points of career development; implementing structural and cultural changes that will help advance gender diversity; and putting in place a strategy and action plan to affect change.

Christine White, Head of Diversity Mark NI commented, “We are delighted to award NI Water with a Bronze Gender Diversity Charter Mark today.  They within their application have shown a real commitment to implementing inclusive growth and cultural shifts within the workplace”.“The Charter has enabled organisations to identify and reflect on institutional barriers facing women, which impact progression on the career ladder. Through this, organisations have also taken steps to progress the overall diversity and equality agenda and improve the working environment for all genders.”
