We’re proud to be a business where everyone can be themselves, regardless of sexual orientation and/or gender identity. We want to be a great place to work for everyone including our lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex and asexual (LGBT+) employees.
At bp, we aim to create and foster inclusive workplaces where everyone feels safe, valued and empowered to speak up.
This supports all our people so that they can deliver at their best and progress based on their full potential. bp Pride, our employee led pride community, has developed two core programmes to help drive an inclusive work environment for all:
Safe Space is designed for all bp employees regardless of your race, gender, age, religion or sexuality. It aims to foster an inclusive environment and create a safe working space for all people. You’ll learn about some of the challenges LGBTQ+ staff may face at work, while the presenters will share their personal experiences and lead exercises that show you how to see the world from other perspectives. It will help you recognize how you can create change.
Allies is all about creating a supportive working culture across bp, where allies proactively self-identify and build an environment where everyone can bring their whole selves to work. Reciprocal mentoring is part of that, and means that senior and less experienced people can learn something from each other and gain valuable insight into someone else’s perspective.
As such, we’re one of the highest-ranking energy companies in the Stonewall Workplace Equality Index. We’re proud to be one of the founding corporate members of Trans in the City too.
bp Pride works with an established network of external partnerships, which support our commitment to LGBTQ+ employees, including:
Efforts by individuals have been noticed as well. We’re proud that our very own employees have been honoured as nominees and award winners by LGBTQ+ awards, OUTstanding awards, INvolve, Pride Power list and Rainbow Honours.
Take a look at our archive of past LGBTQ+ videos.
