PAGE 124 - B.I.S ANNUAL REPORT 2022 - 2023

The BIS strives to create and sustain an inspiring and inclusive

workplace in which people from all over the world, with diverse

backgrounds and perspectives, feel welcomed and can flourish. In

2022/23, we hired 136 new employees from 37 countries with

diverse cultural, educational and social backgrounds.

A key aim of the BIS is to measurably increase gender diversity.

Reflecting its full commitment to equal opportunity employment,

the Bank has set a 50/50 gender target to fill vacancies for line

managers and senior professionals. In 2022/23, our overall

recruitment distribution was 33% for female line managers and

31% for senior professionals. While we fell short of our target, the

BIS remains committed to improving our gender balance over the

long term.

To implement its wider diversity agenda, the BIS has a Diversity

Steering Committee made up of representatives from around the

Bank. The committee provides input into the Bankโ€™s activities

related to diversity and inclusion. The BIS also has four staff-led

diversity and affinity networks (see box).

In support of our quest to

become a more inclusive

employer, in February 2023 we

introduced a guide to inclusive

recruitment and a training

course to support those

involved in hiring decisions. We

also introduced new inclusive

language and imagery

guidelines. These tools will help

open more opportunities,

access a wider talent pool,

ensure fair hiring decisions and

ultimately improve our

performance.
