Tell me some stories of things your company does to make LGBT employees feel at ease at work?

We have some amazing colleague network groups, one of those being Flying Proud, which is a network to support the LGBTQ+ community and allies. We also have a dedicated D,E&I team that ensure we are hitting diversity and inclusion targets company wide. We have regular communications and events to support the LGBTQ+ community throughout the year. Within my department (Revenue Management) we have a people plan which is colleague led and there is a dedicated group of people spreading awareness of inclusive topics and ensuring the department is an inclusive place to work.

As a transgender woman, I feel more comfortable working at British Airways than I have at any other employer as I feel that my unique and identity is embraced at British Airways. When I took part in a national campaign for a LGBTQ+ charity this was shared on our internal intranet and received a lot of positive comments by colleagues. Our internal LGBTQ+ network, Flying Proud, is also active providing a safe space for colleagues and regularly hosting events to help educate colleagues.
