Women+@Colt initiatives:
We're a Menopause Friendly Employer
We’re excited to announce that Colt has been awarded the Menopause Friendly Employer Accreditation for creating an inclusive culture where everyone feels able to talk about the menopause and individuals are given the support they need.
This makes Colt only one of a handful in our industry to have this accreditation.
Upskill Me
Colt supports Upskill Me, an initiative to provide mentoring to girls and non-binary young people who are considering a career in STEM.
Group mentoring
In need of a new way to connect with each other in our virtual world, our committee set up small group mentoring sessions via video call. With topics such as resilience, bravery, networking and cross-functional career moves, they provide not only a vital space to talk about personal development, but also a place to network with members and allies from all levels of the business across the globe.
