Based upon mandatory figures reported to the government this year, we are pleased to publish our report on the gender pay gap in the Retail industry. With broader sector analysis provided by PwC, we look at the reasons behind the gap and ways in which the DiR Collaboration Community is producing innovative action planning to positively turn the dial to reduce the gap. We look at the benefits created by policy change and inclusive recruitment, and hear directly from member organisations through case studies and best practices.

As we come to the mid-way point in the year we wanted to take the opportunity to share a snapshot of some of the collective progress we've made. From welcoming new members into our Collaboration Community, to hosting webinars on key EDI topics, not to mention seeing almost 1000 delegates graduate across our various development programmes, it's clear to see that 2023 has already been jam packed.

Within the toolkit there is a range of helpful materials, including tips on how to establish your group, industry case studies to share best practice, and strategies for engaging with senior leadership.

We are delighted to launch our first ever Employee Voice Report based on the results of a survey we conducted in October 2022.

The Report highlights insightful findings in what diversity, equity and inclusion really means to people from every function and level working across the sector and provides fascinating and wide-reaching insights into how represented employees feel in their organisations, whether they have a full sense of belonging while at work, and how important an organisation's commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion is to them personally.
