International Women's Day is on the 8 March and we are here to fully #EmbraceEquity.
See what's on at Kent and get involved!
Our commitment to #EmbraceEquity
"Our mean gender pay gap at Kent currently stands at
14.6% having widened slightly over the last year. This isn't good enough and is
a challenge here and across our sector that we are determined to address - both
by better supporting talent so more female academics make it into senior roles
and through our new People & Culture Strategy, which looks to build on the
positives of increased flexible working for families and those with caring
responsibilities in particular.
There are outstanding and inspiring women
working at Kent at Executive level, in academic leadership positions and right
across the University.
We are fully committed to unblocking whatever we can so
we get progress back on track towards removing the pay gap for good".
From Martin Atkinson, Director of Human Resources and Organisational Development
Quotation
Role-modelling is really important in supporting women into leadership positions and providing support and training as appropriate".
We’re celebrated Women’s History Month this March in the Templeman Library and Student Services, Information Services and Kent Union have created a reading list for students and staff who want to feed their literary curiosity and discover new books and resources outside of their academic studies
