Accountability

Governance to support measurable impact

Our strategy centres on building a framework to measure the impact of inclusion initiatives and enhance accountability with clear governance and transparent reporting. Over the past year, we focused on establishing key foundations, including:

  • Delivered targeted guidance to practice groups and business services to integrate inclusion perspectives, enabling meaningful tracking and recognition of contributions toward our inclusion objectives.
  • Led a firmwide initiative for colleagues to review and update demographic information in line with the UK Solicitors Regulation Authority’s diversity framework. By the end of FY24/25, 63% of UK-based colleagues had updated their details. We went beyond regulatory requirements by including neurodiversity questions, creating a richer and more inclusive data set. To further increase participation, we will adopt a more targeted approach, including regular reminders and direct engagement with colleagues.
  • Assessed remuneration policies and practices to ensure contributions to inclusion are valued alongside client service and operational responsibilities. Progress will be monitored and reported as part of our ongoing programme.
  • Partnered with Human Resources to develop metrics and reporting cycles to track progress against gender, race, and ethnicity goals.
