Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion Statement

We are a multi-cultural international team with a positive and learning culture: a company that values inclusion, wellbeing and learning and growing in our personal and professional lives. We want our growth strategy to reflect those values.

At Optellum, we understand a lot of time is spent at work, it is where friendships are made and connections are formed. We therefore want everyone to work together to propel our performance and drive our mission. All our people share the same pride in living our values and delivering our vision.

We consider ED&I to be critical to the core of our business, not a compliance necessity. Optellum promotes equity both inside and outside our organisation, with respect to any personal or social identities, individual rights, opportunities, or status. We comply with applicable equality and anti-discrimination laws, including the Equality Act 2010.

We recognise that diversity is found in any social identity, such as age, culture, ethnicity, gender, nationality, physical abilities or characteristics, political and religious beliefs, sexual orientation, diversity of thought, as well as many other additional attributes. Inclusion is the process of involving, accepting, and valuing all people regardless of their differences and social identity.

Equity and Equality are two concepts that relate to fairness. Equality means giving the same opportunities to everyone, whatever their background and social identity. Equity recognises that some groups face more barriers than others and tries to address them.
