British Business Bank signed the Race at Work Charter in March 2021. The Race at Work Charter builds on the work of the 2017 McGregor-Smith Review. The Race at Work Charter is a public commitment to improving the experiences of Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic employees in the workplace. It sets out five actions for signatories to take:
- Appointing an Executive Sponsor for race
- Capturing data and publicising progress
- Ensuring zero tolerance of harassment and bullying
- Making equality in the workplace the responsibility of all leaders and managers
- Taking action that supports ethnic minority career progression
