LGBTQ+ at Tesco
LGBTQ+ at Tesco was established in 2005 and is one of the largest LGBTQ+ colleague networks in Europe.
The network exists to support and empower our LGBTQ+ colleagues so that they feel confident to be themselves at work and be the best that they can be.
We want to connect our members together in a safe environment, and provide support for those who need it as well as career development opportunities. We seek to educate the business on a range of issues and the spectrum of identities and celebrate our diverse workforce. We want Tesco to be a business where everyone is welcome, which uses its scale for good and where everyone is an ally.
LGBTQ+ at Tesco also advocates on behalf of our LGBTQ+ customers and works across the LGBTQ+ community to support a range of initiatives and charities.
We are delighted to take part and support a number of Pride events across the country and are joined each year by over 1,000 colleagues from across the Tesco Group.
We are a proud member of Stonewall Global Diversity Champions Programme and the Open for Business coalition to support LGBTQ+ inclusion around the world.
In addition, we are also signatories of the United Nations Standards of Conduct for Business on tackling discrimination against LGBTQ+ people.
