Our employee resource groups (ERGs) play\u00a0an important role\u00a0in achieving this goal \u2013 giving colleagues the opportunity to network with like-minded people, support each other through challenges and drive positive change throughout the business.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our disability ERG is a shining example of the impact employee-driven groups can have in the workplace. This Neurodiversity Celebration Week,\u00a0we\u2019re\u00a0celebrating their neurodiversity-focused achievements from 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Over 2025 the ERG has blossomed into a thriving community where colleagues regularly collaborate and support each other with a range of day-to-day tasks. By providing a place for neurodiverse and other disabled colleagues to talk through any problems they may be facing, the ERG has become an integral part of helping colleagues thrive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The group have\u00a0found success using different tools and ways of working, including art wellness sessions over lunch times to decompress midday and regular body-doubling sessions to create an environment for increased focus and deep thinking.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The group celebrated many successes over 2025\u00a0in raising awareness around neurodivergent conditions both within SYSTRA and to the wider industry. They published three podcast episodes: two focusing on navigating the workplace with ADHD and seeking diagnosis, and one insight into life as a parent and carer of a neurodivergent child.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
