\/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Although the UK logistics and warehouse sector can stereotypically be depicted as male-dominated, we are proud that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.international-logistics-group.com\/uk-en\/insights\/women-in-logistics-and-the-beauty-supply-chain-6590\/\">41% of our employees are female<\/a>, which is nearly double the UK industry average of 22%. Our workforce also represents a huge variety of nationalities, with 40% identifying as of non-British origin, and a wide range of ages &#8211; from 16 to 70 years old.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At ILG, we actively support the recruitment of people with disabilities, either via the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aldingbournetrust.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>WorkAid<\/strong><\/a> and <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.track.org.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Track<\/a><\/strong> schemes for those with autism or learning difficulties or via Workability for carers and people with hearing loss or other disabilities. 10% of our workforce identify themselves on the autistic spectrum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ILG has also been an active participant in the DWP\u2019s <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.international-logistics-group.com\/uk-en\/insights\/minister-for-employment-meets-ilg-kickstarters-5980\/\">Kickstart<\/a><\/strong> scheme, providing young people at risk of long-term unemployment and on universal credit with six months of paid work experience and skills development. The Kickstart scheme at ILG was so successful that DWP created a video about ILG\u2019s involvement, and Minister for Employment Mims Davies MP visited us to meet some of the Kickstart staff &#8211; <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.international-logistics-group.com\/uk-en\/insights\/minister-for-employment-meets-ilg-kickstarters-5980\/\">find out more about her visit here<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We also support people looking to gain job application skills. Working with KickStart and <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.crawleyopenhouse.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Crawley Open House<\/a><\/strong> we offer work search support, transferrable skills development, mentoring, CV skills and interview workshops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To attract and maintain an equality-focused workforce, we ensure all ILG staff receive mandatory training for <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.international-logistics-group.com\/uk-en\/insights\/autism-awareness-day-with-ilg-6516\/\">autism awareness<\/a><\/strong>, as well as annual training in equality and diversity, and ethics and conduct. Also, we recently introduced a course in deaf awareness to better support our employees with hearing loss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We have even bigger ambitions to improve our company\u2019s diversity, through future projects in the pipeline with Surrey Care Trust, and rehabilitation and employment schemes for ex-offenders. ILG is proud to be making great strides in incorporating inclusion and celebrating diversity across our business.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ILG is
