About Investors in Diversity
Investors in Diversity (IiD)
The Investors in Diversity Award is recognised as much more than just a highly prized and prestigious quality mark. It is an all-encompassing approach to managing equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) effectively. It enables organisations to take a structured and planned approach to embedding equality and diversity at the heart of what they do while providing a simple framework in which to do so.
We understand organisations have different motivations for subscribing to become IiD accredited. Whether it is meeting legislative requirements, promoting organisational change or even improving employee performance, our user friendly process ensures you have the necessary support and advice to drive positive change.
