What is Clear Assured?
Clear Assured is a recognised inclusion standard. It provides the latest D&I resources and best practice for all aspects of the employee lifecycle, supporting us on our inclusion journey.
The Clear Assured standard is an accreditation that builds inclusion capability and confidence. Accreditation is evidence-based and practical. Some of the learnings we have put into practice so far include:
- Making things more accessible.
- Advertising on wider platforms to increase diversity of applicants.
- Reviewed and updated various company policies.
- Additional D&I training for the team on various topics including unconscious bias, mental health and peri/menopause.
- Updating our induction pack for new employees.
- Training on the best way to write job descriptions.
- Attending virtual forums on topics such as race equality.
How we can support you with your diversity and inclusion strategy?
Our aim is to submit the widest range of suitable candidates for each role. We work closely with our clients to develop a comprehensive understanding of their needs, the service they require, their culture and the selling points of their roles, and to support their diversity and inclusion strategies. We will work closely with you to overcome barriers to diversity.
DE&I Case Study
The Client: Major Composite Insurer
The Role: A wide range of actuarial vacancies from Student Actuary to Senior Qualified Actuary
How We Helped:
- The company was a major composite insurer and key client of Star Actuarial.
- They had a commitment to increase gender diversity across the business within a set period.
- This commitment was sponsored at the highest level as part of a company-wide approach.
- This was echoed at the individual-vacancy level via briefings and shortlisting targets.
- We worked in partnership with the HR team.
- The result: 20 female placements over the relevant period.
