Hello, excellent & very topical question. Mars is dedicated to making a diverse & inclusive work environment, ensuring everyone can be them best selves at work! There is a whole team dedicated to Diversity & Inclusion with subteams within, for example Cultural Celebration, LGBT+ & Mental Health. You can volunteer to be a part of any of these teams, across all Mars Segments and work together to help bring awareness and drive these critical topics within Mars. I am actually part of the Cultural Celebration team and throughout October we organised a range of (virtual of course!) Black History Month events ranging from an external speaker from Kick it Out to a Mars senior leader panel sharing their experiences and views on what more needs to happen. As within all aspects of life, there is definitely room for improvement, but Mars has a strong ambition, drive & resources, listening to associates and making critical changes where required. If you were interested in seeing any more info from the Black History Month events, we shared some highlights on Linked In!
