Ethnicity Pay Gap 2023
10. Executive lead for race
Ethnicity pay
“Our activity relating to ethnicity pay is intrinsically linked to the delivery of our Race Action Plan, ED&I strategy and changing the culture within Devon and Cornwall Police. Whilst I am pleased, we don’t have an ethnicity pay gap, we do have a gap in the diversity of leaders across all parts of our organisation, this is something we are working hard to improve but acknowledge we have a long way to go.
Tackling racism within policing and building trust and confidence within our diverse communities will provide the foundation for delivering a workforce that is representative of the communities we serve and help us to attract talent from ethnically diverse heritage.
I am confident we have the energy, determination and clear plans to help us deliver a more inclusive organisation that supports, encourages and values talent from all backgrounds.”
