Generation STEAM:
Generation STEAM looks to highlight the inclusivity and diversity of the chemical supply chain by showcasing the vast range of different roles available within the sector.
STEAM is much more than just incorporating the arts into STEAM, it emphasises the need for ambitious and creative individuals within the chemical supply chain and the fresh perspectives they provide.
STEAM moves past the thinking that learning areas are separate, widening the net to ensure we capture a bigger talent pool and have a sustainable workforce for the future.
We currently have 50 and counting Generation STEAM ambassadors, who share their experiences through outreach with young people.
5050Vision
5050 vision highlights the value of workers over 50 to the chemical supply chain, promoting an age-inclusive workplace that showcases the benefits of actively engaging with experienced employees.
Our vision is to recognise, harness, and celebrate the invaluable wealth of experience that seasoned professionals over the age of 50 bring to our workforce. We firmly believe that retaining and empowering these skilled individuals is not only a testament to our commitment to diversity and inclusivity but also a strategic advantage for our industry.
Through offering advice and support, we advocate for older employees to have adequate support in the workplace, from opportunities to gain stackable skills through training, to having access to adequate health support.
