Aoife Whitford, Diversity and Inclusion Champion at the Pay Index, invites firms to take a short survey to gauge the sector’s willingness to participate in a detailed survey of the legal sector’s gender, BAME, LGBTQ+, and disabled employee pay equality.
The Pay Index is keen to deliver a detailed survey of the legal sector’s gender, BAME, LGBTQ+, and disabled employee pay equality. Any company that participates would be free to use its data and information gathered to improve its own internal metrics and the findings will be made available to all members this summer. Therefore we encourage you and your organisation to be a part of this.
As a first step, PayIndex would like to gauge how useful this survey and subsequent findings would be to both the legal profession and individual solicitors by asking you to take this quick initial survey.
The Oxford Centre for Socio-Legal Studies has launched a research project on inspiring women lawyers.
Fill in this five-minute survey before 31 May and nominate an inspiring yet little-known woman lawyer or group of women lawyers in England or Wales who deserve to be celebrated.
They are particularly interested in finding out about the life experiences of a diversity of women lawyers, particularly from working-class backgrounds; those who came to England and Wales as migrants or refugees; women of Black, Asian and minority ethnic (BAME) heritage; from lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer groups (LGBTQ+); and women with disabilities. They want to learn about women lawyers who work across all areas of law and in any legal capacity.
