Research reveals that companies '˜could do more' when encouraging inclusivity
More could be done to promote inclusivity in the workplace, a new study has revealed.

‘The issue of diversity is right at the forefront of the minds of millennials and the incoming generation Z in particular.
‘Address the issue well, and companies will gain a significant competitive edge.’
