More good news for Lockyers. We have been shortlisted in not 1 but 2 categories in the 2019 Diversity and Inclusion in Insurance Awards.

In the words of the organisers

“Insurance has for a long time being characterised a ‘grey, male and stale’, but times are changing. With insurers, brokers and all parts of the insurance supply chain making strides to consign this stereotype to history; and change the perception of a sector which remains so important to the economic outlook of the country.

With this in mind, Insurance Post and Insurance Age is delighted to announce that it will hold the first Diversity and Inclusion in Insurance Awards in November.

The event will celebrate individuals who work in the insurance sector who have done the most to champion D&I awareness and issues within their organisation and wider afield in areas such as LGBT+ rights; mental health; disability rights; gender and race equality”.

Lockyers are finalists for the Diversity and Inclusion Collaboration and Flexible Employer Awards.

The heart of our business is our people. Lockyers value all staff as individuals and recognise that everyone has personal commitments outside the workplace. Our business has seen significant growth over the last few years and this is due to the commitment of our team, going the extra mile for our clients. Lockyers will always try to accommodate requests for flexible working arrangements and this approach is reflected in the high morale and personal motivation of the team leading to our business success.

Lockyers are committed to making a difference beyond the workplace. We are involved in promoting diversity and inclusion in our local community including sponsoring the Ruby Slipper Ball, setting up an inclusive business networking group, fundraising for charity and supporting the LGBT Pride campaign.

The winners are announced on 14th November – watch this space.
