Speaker John Bercow: I’m thrilled the Commons has been recognised as top LGBT employer
House of Commons Speaker John Bercow writes for PinkNews as the Commons is named for the first time as one of the UK’s top 100 employers for LGBT people via Stonewall’s Workplace Equality Index.
Ask any forward-thinking employer, and they’ll tell you that people perform better when they can be themselves. Providing a working environment where people feel comfortable, happy, and accepted – without exception – is not only a savvy business move, but simply the right thing to do.
That’s why I’m so proud of this year’s Stonewall top 100 employers ranking, which sees the House of Commons placed 28th overall – jumping 88 spots compared with last year’s edition.
Stonewall’s Top 100 Employers is the definitive list showcasing the best employers for lesbian, gay, bi and trans staff. It is compiled from submissions to the Workplace Equality Index, a powerful benchmarking tool used by employers to create inclusive workplaces.
