Status note
Business in the Community encourages signatories to promote Race at Work Charter signatory status. We do not describe the Charter as an accreditation.
A pledge or charter is not presented as an accreditation unless the issuing scheme expressly provides accreditation. We publish stronger claims only when the relevant external status can be evidenced.
