Marks & Spencer and The Civil Service have walked away with the top prizes at the Employers Network for Equality and Inclusion (enei) Awards 2014.

Awarded the overall winner categories for the private and public sector respectively, the two organisations celebrated their achievements alongside loyalty card group Aimia, which was named “Small Employer of the Year 2014” for its UK operation.

All winners, across 21 categories, had to demonstrate a clear response to a specific challenge, definitive and measurable outcomes, and evidence of significant impact. The awards acknowledged and celebrated those with a commitment to good practice above and beyond legal compliance and innovative approaches that will inspire other employers.

Among the speakers addressing more than 250 delegates at the event was enei patron, and former home secretary, David Blunkett, who questioned why many employers still saw diversity as “nice to do”, rather than as a moral issue.

Denise Keating, enei chief executive, said the enei Awards recognise the commitment of organisations to achieving diverse and inclusive workplaces: “We have been encouraged by the steps these organisations have taken to promote equality and diversity and hope this will encourage other companies to follow their lead. More than 80 organisations entered the awards this year and we are delighted that many of them are prepared to publicly demonstrate best practice and have been recognised for the innovative work they are doing.”
