Managing workplaces effectively and inclusively
FIR HomeFairness, Inclusion and Respect supports a management approach whereby we recognise that everyone has different strengths and also have different needs. We as managers need to understand our own characteristics, strengths and weaknesses so that we can build a diverse team around us that can support our weaknesses.
Creating a culture of fairness, inclusion and respect in the workplace enables our people to do the best job that they can. That, in turn, boosts productivity and benefits the business bottom line.
The FIR Toolkit Resource Library contains a range of resources that specifically explain how being a good employer promotes FIR and vice versa.
