Diversity and inclusion
This year we were recognised by Inclusive Companies and were ranked #11 on the inclusive top 50 UK employers list!
In recognition of our continued dedication to workplace diversity, United Utilities has been ranked #1 in The Inclusive Top 50 UK Employers List 2022/23 – a definitive list of UK based organisations that promote inclusion across all protected characteristics, throughout each level of employment.
We value diversity, providing equality of opportunity and recruiting & promoting on merit.
Our aim is to create a workforce that’s representative of our region and customer base. It’s really important to us that we’re able to create an inclusive and supportive working environment where all our employees feel valued and free to contribute to their full potential.
We want to attract the best talent and recognise the importance of diversity and inclusion in achieving that aim.
