Supporting your journey to workplace equity

EquityIQ is suite of workplace equity evidence-based tools to create an equitable future — for everyone.

Balanced businesses perform better

But over 50 years after the UK passed equal pay legislation, on average, women earn less than men.

  • Few organisations have gender balance in leadership

  • Few fathers take up shared parental leave

  • Few employers have a menopause policy

Isn’t it time that changed?

We work with you to make that change. We use data to find the problems, fix them, balance your workplace, and recognise your commitment to change, so your organisation profits.

  • The EquityIQ process makes you really evaluate your policies and process, and as a bonus it covers much more than gender equality. I would recommend Lead5050 to any organisation serious about diversity in their business.

  • Our mission

Who do we work with?

Workplace balance is more than an annual tick-box exercise — it’s a daily practice and an ongoing investment in your business.

And we work with organisations that approach it the same way. So if you’re open to change, and looking to become more inclusive, more balanced and more successful — let’s work together.
