Equality, Inclusion, Diversity and Belonging
Liverpool Heart and Chest Hospital is pleased to introduce our Equality, Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging Strategy (EDIB), which outlines our commitments for the next 3 years.
LHCH employ just under 1900 staff in direct delivery of care and support services, with 14.92% from ethnic minority backgrounds and representing 44 nationalities, and we are proud to have such a diverse workforce because we know that this diversity enhances the care we give to our patients. (Data at 31/03/2022).
We are also committed to building a workforce in which each employee can enjoy a strong sense of belonging and where diversity, difference and uniqueness are truly valued. As well as being well-represented across all levels, we must ensure that people from marginalised groups, are actively and always included, and that this inclusion is felt authentically at a personal level.
Working towards a truly inclusive culture at LHCH, not only improves the experience of our workforce, but also offers significant benefits to our patients.
