Developing our roadmap
Our journey to develop this roadmap has been supported through engagement with a range of stakeholders; this includes:
- our people networks (Tagata Pasifika, Wāhine Tūhono – Women’s Network, He Toa Takitini - Rainbow Network, Diversability Network and Multicultural Network)
- whānau Māori members from across Inland Revenue Te Tari Taake
- our 3 unions (PSA, Taxpro and NUPE) with ongoing significant support from PSA Rūnanga and Tagata Moana Delegates and Taxpro representatives from Māori and Pasifika communities
- senior leaders and business partners
- representatives of business groups who provide or support services that enable our diversity equity and inclusion goals.
Understanding our people’s experiences
When developing our Diversity, Equity and Inclusion roadmap, we committed to understanding the experiences of Māori and Pacific peoples, in terms of developing careers and the barriers that have been faced.
We have worked in partnership to establish actions that will create a positive impact on Māori and Pacific representation, and in turn reduce the pay gaps.
This Diversity, Equity and Inclusion roadmap responds to the insights we have gathered from our people to identify tangible actions that can bring meaningful change for underrepresented communities at Inland Revenue Te Tari Taake.
Alongside this roadmap is our Māori Representation roadmap – this includes activities specifically focused on enabling meaningful change in Māori representation.
