150th Episode

The security sector regularly discusses diversity issues, this is unsurprising since they are a major challenge. However, most of the focus has been on the need to promote women and be more racially diverse. Laudable though these are what has been less salient has been coverage of any challenges in engaging the disabled and the LGBT community in the security sector. This webinar aims to address this. It will discuss what barriers exists and consider how they might they be tackled; what a good initiative to promote engagement looks like?

This webinar will:

- Discuss the current approaches to inspire engaging the disabled and the LGBT community in the security sector and highlight the gaps
- Explore why these areas have not been a focus
- Evaluate what needs to happen next and who should be responsible

Panellists:
Jane Farrell - Head of Security UK and Ireland at Sodexo
Arevika Stepanian - ASIS UK Board Director for Diversity, Equity & Inclusion
Oliver Lincoln - UK Sales Manager, Securitas Security Services
