The Good Employment Charter is a voluntary member and accreditation scheme working to improve employment standards across the West of England.
Delivered by the West of England Combined Authority, the Good Employment Charter is driven to develop diverse, equitable and truly inclusive employment practices across the West of England.
The Combined Authority was set up in 2017 to make decisions and investments that benefit people living and working in Bath and North East Somerset, Bristol and South Gloucestershire. Together, our aim is to deliver economic growth for the region and address some of our challenges, such as productivity and skills, housing and transport.
The West of England Good Employment Charter will set the standard for working practices in the region. Supporting organisations of any size or sector to improve investment in their staff, enabling more inclusive, equitable and sustainable working practices, positively benefitting people, society, and the wider economy.
We are on a mission to help employers provide a more rewarding, inclusive and sustainable work environment for all their employees. We want to improve and set the employment standard in our region by encouraging organisations of any size, and within any sector, to become supporters and members of the Charter.
