The award recognises OCS’s organisation-wide commitment to diversity, equal\u00a0opportunity\u00a0and colleague wellbeing.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The ceremony formed part of Alstom’s annual Supplier Day, attended by more than 200 stakeholders from across the UK rail industry. Nine awards were presented across social value<\/a> categories aligned to the UK Government’s Social Value Model<\/a>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

What the Award Recognises<\/h3>\n

Judged from more than 100 nominations across Alstom’s UK and Ireland supply chain, the award highlighted OCS’s equal opportunity policies, monthly monitoring of colleague demographics and job applicant data, and a dedicated recruitment function focused on attracting talent from underrepresented groups.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

OCS holds Disability Confident Employer<\/a>\u00a0status,\u00a0hosts supported internships and offers a guaranteed interview scheme for suitably qualified applicants. The company reported a zero median gender pay gap in 2024\/25 and actively supports colleagues in the manifestation of faith at work.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/section>\n\n\n

\n \u201cWinning this award reflects the work our colleagues do every day to make inclusion a reality, not just a policy. In transport, we serve a diverse range of environments and communities, and that’s only possible if our workforce reflects that same diversity. Recognition from a partner of Alstom’s standing reinforces that our approach is the right one and gives our teams real reason to be proud.\u201d <\/p>\n
