Aston Martin F1 fully believes that diversity and inclusion – not only throughout our workforce but also within our fan, partner and global community – is to be supported and celebrated in pursuit of our goals on and off track.
The team is committed to encouraging equality, diversity and inclusion while striving to be a progressive and modern brand that is both socially aware and an advocate for the positive benefits diversity brings.
Aston Martin F1 aims to reflect the communities that we operate in, both locally and internationally, and use our platform to help promote an inclusive culture where members of our team are respected, empowered, and valued.
We believe that our team, Formula One, fans and partners can all benefit from a diverse and inclusive employee base that reflects a wide range of people, regardless of age, sex, gender identity, ethnicity, sexual orientation, religion, belief, or disability.
The team welcomes different, creative, new ways of thinking. We value people’s differences and aim to create and sustain an environment in which everyone feels that they belong, their contributions are heard and are valued.
We recognise the contribution made to the motorsport industry through a diverse labour force and believe that equality legislation set minimum standards, and we can go beyond ticking boxes to lead and maximise our incredible platform.
We have also created a policy that reinforces our diversity, inclusion, and equality standards we expect of our employees. Promoting equality, diversity and inclusion will help to ensure that everyone within the team can perform at their best and reach their potential. The team recognises that it must play a part on the individual level to help promote diversity, inclusion, and equality.
We understand that private beliefs may not align fully with the team, but we fundamentally believe that all individuals have the right to define their own identity and to be fully respected in our working environment.
It is essential that Aston Martin F1 provides explicit support for groups that are underrepresented within our industry, especially when they have, or continue to face, discrimination, prejudice and/or systemic disadvantage within broader society.
The team also recognises that disability may not always be visible, for example, communication and learning differences, and seeks to ensure that support is in place to help ensure every employee is able to excel in their environment.
We recognise that our objective to become a more open, diverse, and inclusive team is not a destination but a journey, and Aston Martin F1 is committed to ensuring equality, diversity, and inclusion is embedded in our culture.
