Equality, Diversity and Inclusion: statement of commitment

We believe that equality, diversity, and inclusion (DEI) are at the core of a safe and just culture. Best teams not only share common goals and values, but they also need diverse skills, perspectives and experiences to truly succeed. 

We actively seek to engage diverse employees, trustees, members and supporters to promote inclusion, and diversity in aviation and maritime. Doing so strengthens our ability to serve the aviation and maritime safety communities, drives innovation and growth, and enables us to attract and retain the talent required to strive for continuous safety improvement.
