Diversity

Championing diversity of thought and experiences

We’re committed to helping organisations improve diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), so all employees feel seen, respected, and motivated at work. Through our customers, we pay or reward 1 in 7 working people in the UK and Ireland. We’re empowering employers to better understand their workforce make-up thanks to data insights, so they can set, track, and achieve ambitious DEI goals. Our flexible benefits allow employees to choose and adapt their package according to their individual needs and circumstances.

Empowering organisations to be truly diverse

Scaling our MyDiversity data to help our customers achieve their DEI ambitions with an inclusive and responsive way to capture data confidentially and securely.

Enabling organisations to meet current and future pay gap reporting requirements such as gender, disability, ethnicity, and CEO pay gap reporting.

Investing in comprehensive research to reveal employee points of view, and provide best practice guidance for employers, in collaboration with leading experts and institutions including The Economist.

Championing pay equity and personalised employee benefits that are easily accessible to all.

Supporting organisations to become more diverse and representative

Diversity data collection is evolving. Through MyDiversity data, we empower our customers to go a step beyond the usual pre-employment diversity monitoring questions. It recognises that life circumstances and personal identities, as well as confidence in data sharing, change over time.

With knowledge comes the power to understand where you are, drive change, and achieve goals. Imagine what our organisations could do with a full global breakdown of diversity and inclusion metrics. This is the future into which we are heading.

Community

Strengthening the communities we’re part of

The communities in which we live, work, and interact with one another are the foundations on which our impact grows.

Protecting and strengthening our workspaces and communities

Making charitable giving easy via integrated payroll giving solutions and partnerships. One example is Microhive (formerly known as Pennies from Heaven).

Supporting our local communities through volunteering and partnering with community organisations.

Empowering customers to provide high-quality employment and workplace experiences for their employees.

How we’re supporting the community

A Real Living Wage Employer

We believe in providing high quality employment experiences, which includes paying our colleagues fairly for their work. That’s why we’re proud to pay all colleagues across all our operations in line with, and above, the local living wage rate.

In the UK we are a certified Real Living Wage Employer, having paid in line with this rate since 2019. This includes our UK based contractors. We will continue to include living wage analysis in our salary review process each year.

Making charitable giving easy with Microhive

There’s never been a more important time take care of one another and where we live. Our partnership with Microhive (formerly known as Pennies from Heaven) provides an easy way for employees at Zellis customer organisations to automatically donate the pennies from their payslips to charity. If all 5 million Zellis-paid employees did this, we could collectively raise up to £60 million every year. So those pennies really do add up.

“This really is the time for companies to step up and support society – it is a tough time for us all, but it could be catastrophic for the most vulnerable. It might not be the time to ask people to make the big gestures, but if all of us help in a small way, together we can have a significant social impact.”

Kate Frost.
CEO. Microhive.

Community Days Volunteering Programme

Our group-wide Community Days programme gives all colleagues across all geographies two days per year to volunteer for a charity, community group, or social cause that is meaningful to them. Colleagues can choose to volunteer individually, or in teams to help strengthen relationships whilst making a positive impact in our local communities.

Environment

Minimising our environmental impact

At Zellis Group, protecting our environment goes beyond minimising our impact but also extends to taking proactive steps to protect and restore biodiversity. From reducing waste, to conserving resources, and reducing carbon emissions, every action we take contributes to the goal of a healthier planet.

Protecting our environment for future generations

Cutting our carbon footprint with better ways of working, reducing waste, and sustainable procurement.

Encouraging more sustainable behaviours through employee benefits, including tree planting, greener travel, and more eco-friendly energy choices.

Proactively protect and restore biodiversity of the communities we operate in through our property strategy and employee volunteering.

How we’re protecting the environment

Planting 1 million trees with the help of Benifex customers and their employees

Benifex’s Trees with Benefits initiative enables employers to plant a tree every time an employee makes a new benefit selection on the OneHub platform.

In a dedicated reforestation site in Nepal, we are on track to have planted 1 million trees by the end of 2025. This is just one of many places where we can make more impact and deliver on our responsibility to fight climate change together.

Getting ahead of nationwide objectives and becoming Net Zero Carbon by 2030

We are committed to tackling climate change and reducing our carbon emissions. By 2030 we will be operationally net zero carbon, and by 2040 we will be net zero across all scopes, both targets are science-aligned, and in-line with a 1.5c pathway to avoid the worst effects of climate change.

Our near and long-term targets, and plans to achieve them, have been externally validated by the Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi).

Rapid transformation is taking place across our whole business; from optimising facilities and energy usage, to improving recycling systems, better waste management and promoting electric cars.

For Financial Year 2025 (May 2024 – April 2025) our group wide carbon emissions were:

  Financial Year 2025 (May 2024 – April 2025) Financial Year 2024 (May 2023 – April 2024)
Total Scope 1 66.09 tCO2e 166.37 tCO2e
Total Scope 2 419.39 tCO2e 422.32 tCO2e
Total Scope 3 12,573.73 tCO2e 12,738.38 tCO2e

By 2027, we’ll be…

Supporting 5 million people with financial, mental, and physical wellbeing.

Helping 50% of our customers reach their DEI goals.

Supporting more than 100 apprenticeships.
