London, 02 May 2024 - Sackers announced today that it has become a corporate member of the Group for Autism, Insurance, Investment and Neurodiversity (GAIN), as a further demonstration of its commitment to ED&I. It is only the second law firm to do so.
Sackers is looking forward to working with GAIN to help make its office and working practices more neuro-inclusive and benefiting from GAIN’s industry specific support, advice and guidance. As a first step, GAIN will undertake an assessment to benchmark Sackers against similar sized organisations, including conducting bespoke surveys and reviewing communications.
Sackers is also encouraging both neurodivergent staff and allies to become individual members of GAIN to access the full range of information, activities and networking opportunities that being a member of the GAIN community offers.
David Saunders, Senior Partner of Sackers, said, “Sackers has a long tradition of championing diversity and inclusion in the workplace. We want all our staff to excel. Our membership of GAIN is an important step in enhancing our support for neurodivergent colleagues and industry partners. Making Sackers as neuroinclusive a place to work and meet as possible will benefit us and our clients.”
Liselle Appleby, Supervisory Member of GAIN states, “We are delighted to welcome Sackers as the latest corporate member of GAIN. As a market leader in the pensions and retirement savings industry, Sackers is committed to investing in a neuroinclusive culture encompassing universal design principles that will benefit employees, clients, and the business as a whole.”
