We hold ourselves to account and always do the right thing. We create an ethical and open culture. We are mindful of our actions and consider their impact on others. We resolve conflict by acting flexibly, listening and being open-minded.

Inclusion

We pride ourselves on being diverse, multicultural and multidisciplinary – a place where the best in their field find solutions to the most complex of problems. We also support our employees both personally and professionally, so they can be the best at work and at home.

Equality, diversity and inclusion

Our EDI Strategy is for every one of us working on London Tunnels. We have five strategic pillars that provide the framework to build our inclusive culture that values diversity in all forms. This enables each of us to reach our full potential as part of a high-performing team. To meet HS2’s aspirations, we need to build a workforce that reflects the demographics of the population we serve, and to build a culture where everyone can bring themselves and all their ideas and experiences with them to the workplace.
