Religion at work | Sunak as PM is a D&I milestone, but ordinary working Hindus need more change

Rishi Sunak will mark one month as Prime Minister this week, having taken over from the shortest-lived PM in British history, Liz Truss.

In assuming office, Sunak became the UK’s first ever prime minister of colour and also the first Hindu to do so - both of which were, quite obviously, hailed as milestones for the country’s diversity.

However, despite this truly historic moment, a new report reveals a lack of inclusivity and representation for Hindus in UK workplaces.

Religion at Work: Experiences of Hindu Employees, published today by leading business-psychology consultancy, Pearn Kandola - is the first in a series of reports looking at religious expression in the workplace, with upcoming research examining Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Sikhism and Buddhism.
