The Diversity, Inclusion & Belonging Policy provides a consistent global framework and governance to support our commitment to a global diversity, inclusion & belonging agenda and provides an environment and drive a culture that actively values diversity and inclusion at all levels of the organisation and that provides an environment of equal opportunity. Our Code of Conduct and Global People Standards prescribe equal opportunities as a principle to be respected in regard to recruitment, compensation, access to training, promotion, termination, and retirement. We have in our Diversity, Inclusion & Belonging Policy committed to promoting and driving a culture that actively values diversity and inclusion and to achieve and maintain a workforce that broadly reflects the local communities in which we operate.

The Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) for diversity, inclusion and belonging agenda is owned by a central function, Group Diversity, Inclusion & Belonging, within our People & Culture function. We have established Employee Resource Groups across the five diversity, inclusion and belonging themes most important and relevant for ISS: Generations & Pride; Gender Balance, Abilities and Cultures; and Race and Ethnicity. They are run by voluntary members of the organisation and are sponsored by at least one member of our Executive Group Management (EGM), which ensures that the voices of these particular groups are understood and heard.
