In order for all individuals to feel safe, having allies in the workplace can help navigate difficult conversations surrounding race and racism. Every person is entitled to live their life without feeling like they do not belong in the workplace.
All colleagues should have the expectation that they will be treated with the upmost respect, regardless of their background. It is important that all people are able to understand the positive impact of understanding racism and the impact it has on everyone in the workplace.
This Pocketbook gives insight on how you can be an ally in the workplace, and how to navigate courageous and difficult conversations surrounding race. With such a diverse wealth of people in the UK, it is important to understand what it means to be an ally and how to be actively anti-racist.
We hope that this resource helps all individuals to raise their awareness, knowledge and understanding around supporting ethnically diverse individuals.
