The Security Institute has recognised Corps Security with a consecutive annual ‘Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (ED&I) Initiative’ award.
Presented at the Institute’s annual general meeting and conference which was held under the theme, led ‘The Changing Face of Security’, the accolade recognises initiatives by Corps to break down barriers in the workplace through community support structures, including the Corps Veterans Association, and its guardian support network which encompasses race, disability, religion, age, gender, sexuality, marriage and civil partnership and pregnancy and maternity.
Corps’ dedication to ED&I and our guardian structure means that we are constantly challenging each other to be better, both professionally and personally.
Corps was also commended for changing the mental health dialogue for officers with its mental health events, which led to the launch of the Wellness Baton, an event series collaborating with other security and FM providers to come together, learn, and share best practice for mental health and wellbeing support.
The Institute’s AGM discussed the ever-changing dynamic in the security landscape, which included how the profession is now more diverse and inclusive than ever before. It featured eight awards focusing on outstanding work and contributions within the industry.
Seetan Varsani, divisional director for London and head of Corps Together at Corps Security, says: “We are delighted to win this award, especially for the second year in a row. Corps’ dedication to ED&I and our guardian structure means that we are constantly challenging each other to be better, both professionally and personally.
“We are privileged to have such a diverse workforce, and we are committed to opening our minds and ensuring support, respect and appreciation for every single colleague.”
