Within the toolkit there is a range of helpful materials, including tips on how to establish your group, industry case studies to share best practice, and strategies for engaging with senior leadership.


We hope that this new ENG toolkit will empower organisations and individuals to create meaningful connections, foster a sense of community, and drive positive change within our sector.

The toolkit has been created in collaboration with Members of the WiHTL and Diversity in Retail’s Race & Ethnicity Committee and includes topics such as being an authentic and active ally, understanding and unlearning biases, calling out non-inclusive behaviour and how to navigate conversations about race. 

The next phases of the toolkit will offer support and guidance for line managers, leaders, employee network groups as well as Human Resources and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion professionals.

We are delighted to launch our first-ever Employee Voice Report based on the results of a survey we conducted in October 2022. The Report highlights insightful findings in what diversity, equity and inclusion really means to people from every function and level working across the sector and provides fascinating and wide-reaching insights into how represented employees feel in their organisations, whether they have a full sense of belonging while at work, and how important an organisation's commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion is to them personally.

The report demonstrates how progress, albeit slowly, is being made on closing the gender pay gap and how organisations are addressing the challenges to achieving parity. With statistics drawn from a full sector overview, we also take a deeper dive into how the WiHTL Collaboration Community is taking action to ensure that the pay gap remains at the forefront of DE&I strategy with case studies from Carnival UK (P&O Cruises & Cunard), Compass Group UK & Ireland and ODEON Cinemas Group
