We want to create an inclusive environment for our LGBTIQ+ people to bring their whole selves to work, every day. That's why we've signed Workplace Pride's Declaration of Amsterdam.

This world-leading initiative strives for inclusive corporate cultures where LGBTIQ+ employees feel valued, can be their authentic selves and realize their full potential. Working environments for LGBTIQ+ people that go beyond minimum legal requirements of equality. Active leadership from allies and LGBTIQ+ role models who visibly support LGBTIQ+ inclusive workplaces. And dedicated, declared, and active collaboration between employers and LGBTIQ+ employees to realize mutually beneficial improvements.

The declaration was signed by Worley Diversity and Inclusion Council co-chairs Vinayak Pai, President, Energy, Chemicals and Resources and Vikki Pink, Executive Group Director, People. In attendance was David Pollard, the Co-founder and Executive Director of Workplace Pride.

The digital ceremony also marked International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, Interphobia and Transphobia 2021. 'We are committed to providing a safe, comfortable, equal opportunity workplace that promotes authenticity for our LGBTIQ+ people, and we want them to realize their full potential,' says Tony Frencham, Senior Vice President at Worley and Pride@Worley network executive sponsor and ally.

'We have been members of Workplace Pride for more than two years, and signing the declaration was the next step to building a more inclusive environment for all our LGBTIQ+ people around the world. A benchmark will be set to measure progress, and policies will be improved or created to support a safe, equal opportunity workplace.'
