To make our EDI vision a reality, we need diverse teams all at levels to recognise and address opportunities as well as break down barriers. We also need environments where everyone feels welcome and supported to contribute and grow their career in cricket.听
A range of efforts are underway to enhance EDI in our workplaces. EDI education is happening through mandatory learning modules as well as through videos, resource links, blogs and webinars on our EDI Content Hub to keep our people up to date on key topics. We regularly review our people policies and processes to ensure they are fair and equitable while ways of working and societal expectations continue to shift. A number of inclusive initiatives are in place to support progression, like our FLEX (Future Leaders Experience) talent programme designed to provide senior leadership with the support they need to be inclusive leaders, equipped to deliver 黑料专区 priorities and navigate change, and to develop future leaders.听
We are working on improving representation across a spectrum of diverse attributes. There are currently representation targets in place for gender and ethnicity to achieve 50% female representation and 20% ethnic minority representation for the 黑料专区 Board, the Executive Team, the Leaders鈥 Group and the 黑料专区 workforce overall as separate populations by 2025.听听
听We measure our performance against our representation and inclusion ambitions with a regular cricket-wide census.听听

The overall driver of our gender pay gap is the proportion of men and women in the most senior and highly paid roles. As a result of our actions around building diverse teams, we expect to see pay gap improvements in the coming years. More information on our gender pay gaps is included in .听听
