It begins with a 65-question Company Commitment Survey (CCS), establishing a benchmark of current practices. This is followed by six independent 30-minute verification calls with expert partners, assessing key areas such as policies, workplace inclusion, talent attraction, and mental health support.
The process provides businesses with expert insights, actionable recommendations, and official recognition as an Includability Committed Employer.
The Includability Verification Report
Upon completing the verification process, businesses receive a detailed Verification Report outlining their strengths, areas for improvement, and tailored recommendations across D&I, Sustainability, Wellbeing, Mental Health, Talent Management, and Leadership & Governance. This includes an HR roadmap with practical next steps to enhance workplace culture and employer branding.
To support ongoing development, businesses gain exclusive access to discounted training and workshops through the Includability Marketplace, alongside community benefits, expert insights, and networking opportunities. This ensures they have the tools and resources to continue their journey towards a more inclusive, sustainable, and successful business.

“We are very proud to have received this commendation and reinforces our vision and mission that there is more to football than 3 points on a Saturday. The work we have done with Includability has been incredible and has opened many doors allowing us to get a look at the practices in a diverse range of businesses and environments. Sport, particularly football, has always lagged well behind the business world in many of the issues Includability focuses on and we felt strongly that we wanted to be at the forefront of the conversation and hopefully leaders for change.”
Jody Bevan, Director of Football
"We are super proud to have gone through Includability’s 5 star verification process, we have always been committed to promoting and enabling a positive culture where everyone can be themselves. If we want to leave behind a better world for future generations then we will need ideas and behaviours which channel multiple perspectives and diversity of thought. So, we are committed to doing the work to create Ella’s a more diverse and dynamic workplace. We know that this is easier said than done! We believe that we all have a role to play in championing equality, diversity and helping to create an inclusive culture. As a B Corp, we want to help build a better world and make Ella’s Kitchen a truly great place to work and being an official partner with Includability certainly will help us in this journey."
Kim Deverall, Helps Make People Happy (HR + Talent Coordinator) at Ella’s Kitchen

I am immensely proud of the work of my whole federation team in embodying this ethos throughout the schools, and I am especially proud of Lizi Pravato for leading on this project with Includability. Diversity and equality are areas of utmost importance to our schools and we are proud to trail blaze with such an amazing group of people in our schools and now with our partners in Includability.
Naomi Philp, Executive Headteacher
"We are thrilled to become an Includability Committed Employer; we truly believe we share a common vision of equity, diversity and inclusion. Mencap’s vision is for the UK to be the best place in the world for people with a learning disability to live happy and healthy lives. We have dedicated ourselves to understanding and learning more about diversity and inclusion, and of our collective role in promoting this across all levels of our organisation and within society. "Our Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Strategy is focused on achieving equality through equity – acknowledging the existence of current and historical inequalities and proactively putting in place, positive action, and adjustments to remove these barriers to equal access and opportunities for everyone we work with and for. We understand that equity, diversity, and inclusion are essential characteristics of a just and inclusive society. We also know that inequalities deprive people of their rights, dignity, opportunities and sometimes, their lives. We are fully committed and beyond proud to be Includability Official Partner and Committed Employer, as only collectively, working together with likeminded organisations who share common vision, through sharing and learning, we can make meaningful change."
Katarzyna Ptak, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Officer at Mencap
'What underpins Planet Mark, and is at the heart of everything we do as a business, is our people and our culture. It’s something I’m hugely proud of and protecting fiercely as we double the size of our business year-on-year. No matter how big we grow, we’ll always celebrate the uniqueness of our team. Our open, diverse and inclusive culture is further supported by Includability, and we are delighted to share it as part of the 5-star Verification Process. This has been a wonderful way of reminding us of all of the great things we are achieving together. I believe that a purpose-driven role is key to the happiness of employees and, in turn, greatly contributes to the success of an organisation. We are proud to be partnered with Includability who are encouraging and championing these purpose-driven opportunities'
Lilly Miller, Chief Financial Officer at Planet Mark

As a partnership built on trust, diversity is at the core of who we are. It's not just a value we uphold; it's what defines us and propels us forward. Becoming an Includability Committed Employer is part of our effects to enable our people to thrive.
Victoria Thompson - HR Director at Montagu Evans
"Includability has a way of engaging with its members and it has a way of portraying a message. It's quite difficult sometimes to get out there into the public and instead of going right, we want to control everything Includability takes a completely different stance and it's refreshing to see. Insisting the need that the 5-Star Verification process is done independently by the people who know about these things adds to the credit of it and for me, that was really important. We've gone through that process and we're really lucky to be a 5-Star Verified Includability member, which is an honour as well. That was a massive attraction; it's not about just talking the talk; it's about walking the walk"
Dominic Offer, Director of Client Engagement and Sustainability at Bristol Global Mobility
