Equity, Diversity, Inclusion & Belonging

We want our staff to feel equally valued.

Reddie & Grose is committed to creating and sustaining a fair, positive and mutually supportive working environment for all staff. We want our staff to feel equally valued and respected.

Commitment to equality & diversity

We believe that excellence will be achieved through recognising the value of every individual.

We aim to create an environment that respects the diversity of staff, enabling them to achieve their full potential, contribute fully and derive maximum benefit from their time with Reddie & Grose.

To this end, we acknowledge the following basic rights for all staff:

  • To be treated with respect and dignity.
  • To be treated fairly with regard to all procedures.
  • To be encouraged to reach one’s full potential.

These rights carry responsibilities and we require all staff to recognise these rights and act in accordance with them. In addition, we will comply with all relevant legislation and good practice.

No individual will be unjustly discriminated against. This includes, but is not limited to, discrimination because of age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion and belief, sex and sexual orientation.

Reddie & Grose LLP has signed the IP Inclusive Charter promoted by the UK professional institutes and the UK Intellectual Property Office, which represents a public commitment to supporting and promoting equality, diversity and inclusion in the IP professions.
