XPO entered a team in the Big Logistics Diversity Challenge 2023 for the third year in a row.
The challenge, which was held this year at the Newark Showground in Nottinghamshire, brings together companies within logistics to take part in mental and physical team building events that all support inclusion and diversity.
The XPO team collaborated to achieve the competition's highest score. XPO is currently running numerous diversity and inclusion initiatives across its business, including supporting women within logistics, encouraging veterans into logistics and supporting Pride. It also is launching its neurodiversity programme across the UK and Ireland.
Lynn Brown, vice president, human resources – UK and Ireland, XPO Logistics, said:
“It may be a cliché that teamwork makes the dream work but at XPO we genuinely believe in the potential of our people, working together to deliver excellence for each of our stakeholders. By leveraging the diversity of our colleagues, we achieve truly great things – together. The Big Logistics Diversity Challenge is a practical demonstration of effective teams working together to succeed, and we’re proud to support and take part in this unique event.”
