Composites UK has unveiled a landmark report for the UK composites industry, marking the
sector’s first comprehensive analysis of equity, diversity and inclusion (EDI). Composites UK
will lead a five-year strategy to drive sector-wide change, introducing an EDI framework, a
pledge and extensive resources to support companies in fostering more inclusive
workplaces.
The aim of the initiative is not to impose quotas or encourage a ‘tick-box’ approach, but to
inspire organisations to evaluate and reform basic practices and behaviours that may hinder
inclusion. Matt Bradney, chair of the Composites UK Workforce Development Group,
emphasises the urgency, stating: “We either do this or we don’t have an industry.”
