At Trowers, we’ve always been proud of our natural commitment to diversity and inclusion – TrowersIncludes formalises and focuses this into a powerful initiative at the heart of our firm. Beyond hierarchy and co-designed by every member of our firm, TrowersIncludes is a powerful thread that runs through life at Trowers. Remaining attractive to our clients and to the talent we rely on to serve them is a priority for any law firm and as such, we are committed to fostering and maintaining a truly diverse and inclusive work environment where all individuals can thrive. With almost 40% of Trowers partners female, we are proud of the great strides we’ve made but recognise there is still work to do to make our firm truly reflective of the world we operate in.
‘TrowersIncludes – Equity, Diversity and Inclusion’
Trowers & Hamlins is proud of its diverse workforce and our commitment to equality and diversity is formalised into a powerful initiative known as “TrowersIncludes”, which runs through life at Trowers. TrowersIncludes brings together a network of groups made up of partners, fee-earners and support staff across all of our global offices and champions a range of diversity and inclusion initiatives. Our 10 employee networks are broadly based on the protected characteristics as defined in the Equality Act 2010 (including gender, disability, race, religion and sexual orientation) and drive a full calendar of events as well as awareness raising on relevant issues.
The ED&I committee meets regularly and comprises the chair of each network as well as key individuals from across the business. In addition to working on specific projects, the Committee monitors and reviews the firm’s approach to ED&I to foster and maintain a diverse and inclusive working environment, where all individuals can thrive.
