Everyone hates that feeling of being excluded - Episode 5 of The States of Matter Podcast
Listen here
Hear how tampons and toolbox talks are being used to create a more inclusive and diverse workforce.
This month’s guest, Kat Parsons, is a passionate advocate for a more inclusive culture. In this episode, she shares some of her experiences of being an engineer working on-site and how an interest in health and well-being led to her becoming the Head of Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging at ISS. She discusses the initiatives and changes implemented at ISS that acknowledge that not everyone is the same and how, with a little consideration, everyone can be supported and allowed to thrive.
