About us


We are the accrediting body for workplace Diversity and Inclusion, supporting organisations across all sectors with a trusted accreditation framework, expert guidance and collaborative peer support.


Launched in 2017, Diversity Mark was the first accreditation of its kind, created with the support of forward-thinking businesses committed to building more inclusive workplaces.

Today, almost 200 organisations across the UK and Ireland – representing over 200,000 employees are working towards, or proudly maintaining their Diversity Mark accreditation. By embedding diversity and inclusion into workplace culture, our community of organisations strengthen their reputation and enhance their ability to attract and retain top talent, while also demonstrating social value to suppliers and partners.

Each accreditation is independently assessed by a panel of experts, making it impartial, credible, and impactful. As a not-for-profit organisation, Diversity Mark is driven by impact over profit, ensuring every accreditation contributes to meaningful, long-lasting change.

We are proud to be part of The WiB Group of companies (Charity Number: NI109037).
