Diversity Statement

Harries Watkins Jones PS LLP is committed to promoting inclusion, equality and diversity. We understand and embrace the benefits of a diverse workforce, based on individual merit. We promote an inclusive environment where each person is valued, treated fairly and with respect.

Under the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England & Wales firm’s probate compliance we are required to monitor our firm’s diversity. To comply with these rules we are required to carry out a staff diversity survey every 2 years. As clients may deal with staff from our sister practice Harries Watkins & Jones Ltd in addition to the staff of Harries Watkins Jones PS LLP we have extended the survey to them.

We monitor data in relation to:

  • Age
  • Sex/gender
  • Disability
  • Ethnic group
  • Faith
  • Sexual orientation
  • Socio-economic background
  • Social mobility
  • Caring responsibilities
  • Marital Status
