Diversify
The UK’s first EDI-as-a-Service solution: Built to help organisations make real progress.
Unlock workforce clarity with actionable insights you can apply to any workforce. Diversify transforms how organisations understand and improve their temporary, permanent, and contract teams by turning diversity data and employee sentiment into clear, evidence‑based actions and reporting to improve engagement, retention and performance.
What is Diversify?
Diversify is the UK’s first EDI-as-a-Service platform, providing a scalable, strategic EDI solution that brings expert workforce insights together with clear action plans for measurable change.
Our specialised analytics and survey platform turns anonymous workforce sentiment and self‑declared diversity data into practical insights. Benchmarked against UK labour market data from the ONS, it helps organisations understand how their people feel, who makes up their workforce and where meaningful improvements to belonging can be made.
Diversify is not a one-off project. It is an ongoing EDI service designed for long-term value, continuous learning and real results. It helps your organisation stay compliant with upcoming EDI reporting requirements and gives you regular insights and evidenced-based actions that create real change for real workforce.
Why Diversify Matters
Workforce challenges are rarely just operational, they’re signals. Correctly captured and interpreted workforce data is the key to unlocking them. Diversify helps organisations quantify and understand challenges such as:
- Talent shortages
- Absenteeism
- Attrition and retention
- Lack of candidate diversity
- Culture and belonging issues
Navigating New UK Regulatory Requirements
From April 2027, new regulatory changes under the Employment Rights Act 2025 will require employers to produce Equality Action Plans, Menopause Action Plans, and ensure transparency around outsourced labour. Diversify provides the evidence‑based narrative these regulations expect, not just dashboards or scores. With Blue Arrow, you benefit from actions plans designed around your unique workforce requirements, with the ongoing data insights to support strategic change.
See how we helped a leading communications service provider transform workforce insight into strategic, site-level Equality Action Plans.
