We believe in employing people from a wide range of backgrounds as part of our commitment to equality and diversity.

Training and development

We want to provide the best service we can to children and families, so we have a strong commitment to providing a high level of management support and training for our employees.  We hold the Investors in People Award and we invest heavily in your training, based on needs identified by the organisation, with your line manager and in individual Performance Development Reviews (PDRs).

Fairness, equality and diversity

The NSPCC is committed to fairness, equality and diversity in the workplace.  By being diverse, our staff have a wide range of talents and experience, helping us to meet different people's needs.

Black Workers Support Group

The NSPCC has an established Black Workers Support Group. The group aims to develop mutual support for black workers and help to lessen or eliminate isolation. Through a forum for discussion of issues that affect black workers, as well as issues of service delivery, it seeks to promote the delivery of high quality services to black communities. Ultimately it aims to encourage anti-racist practice and seeks to influence the development of NSPCC practices and procedures relating to black workers and service users.

Pride in the NSPCC’s Colleagues

A lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) support and advisory group has recently been established, named PINC (Pride in the NSPCC's Colleagues). Its aim is to develop the services that the group provides. PINC is already an exciting and dynamic group which aims to impact positively on the lives of service users, and staff within the NSPCC. Members of the group come from across the NSPCC and are committed to influencing organisational polices, practices and service provision. PINC provides support for LGBT staff and raises awareness of LGBT issues and developments throughout the organisation.

The Deaf and Disabled Rights Action Group (DDRAG)

The group aims to become an integral part of the NSPCC and its development.  Getting things right for NSPCC employees is just the first step.  Ultimately, DDRAG want to ensure that all NSPCC services, campaigns and activities are inclusive, accessible and enabling for deaf and disabled chidlren, young people, their families and the wider community.

Positive about disabled people

The NSPCC is committed to the employment of disabled people. To demonstrate this commitment, we guarantee an interview to all disabled applicants who meet the essential criteria as outlined in the person specification.

Trade union

The trade union, Community, is recognised by the NSPCC to represent the interests of employees.  Community is consulted with on local and national employee relations issues.
