Greggs’s Valuable 500 Commitment:
At Greggs, we pride ourselves on our culture and ‘Being Greggs’, creating an environment which is friendly, hardworking, respectful, appreciative, honest and which is inclusive of everyone. We recognise that difference is good and we have made a pledge that ‘by 2025, our workforce will reflect the communities we serve’.
We recognise the important contribution that people living with disabilities can make and are committed to:
-
Improve the data we hold for our colleagues including whether colleagues have a disability.
-
Review accessibility in our recruitment processes and the training we provide.
-
We will deliver diversity awareness training to all colleagues, and provide additional training to those with responsibility for either managing others or recruiting new team members to make sure they are leading and recruiting in an inclusive way.
-
We have signed up to the Sunflower Scheme and will train all colleagues about Hidden Disabilities ensuring we can best support our colleagues and customers.
-
We will continue our Supported Hours initiative in our shops, helping maintain employment for colleagues with disabilities who need additional support.
-
Greggs is committed to improving our diversity and inclusion in all its forms and we have renewed our engagement with the National Equality Standard (NES) first signed in 2017.
