The survey has also been extended to include senior leaders, which will provide a unique snapshot of the views of sector CEOs and their leadership teams on what leading on inclusion means for them, as well as providing insights into their diversity journeys to positions of leadership.

The results from last year’s survey are available here and have formed a basis for much analysis of trends in equality, diversity, and inclusion.

Phil Beach CBE, Chief Executive of Energy & Utility Skills, said: “Now in its third year, the Inclusion Measurement Framework provides unparalleled EDI insights for our industries.  As well as the opportunity to benchmark progress, the framework provides clear evidence for industry and individual employers to target diversity and inclusion action.

“This is a great opportunity for companies of all sizes to get involved and drive forward change in energy and utility industries.”

Participation is free of charge to any company within the sector.
