Tackling economic inequality

Through partnering with BlueFort, you will be actively supporting the creation of employment and training opportunities designed to help address the shortage of cyber security skills within the UK. Each additional contract provides a new opportunity for BlueFort to:
• Increase the amount of specialist cyber security roles within the business. Over 80% of our current workforce are in specialist cyber security roles. In line with our own growth plan, our target is to increase the amount of specialist roles by 50% by 2028.
• Encourage the uptake of cyber security careers for school leavers and undergraduates. We commit to partnering with local schools and higher educational institutions. Our target is to offer 4 industry placements per year from 2025.
In addition to the above, BlueFort’s service also actively supports the creation of diverse supply chains. We partner with a wide variety of specialist technology vendors and contractors to deliver our service. Each contract provides additional opportunities for new businesses, start-ups, and SMEs within the cyber security sector to grow and continue to innovate.
• We support innovation and disruptive technologies. Our solution portfolio is continuously updated and reviewed.

Equal opportunity

BlueFort are actively working towards improving workforce inequality. Women and minorities are for example currently underrepresented within the cyber security industry. For example, fewer than 25% of cyber security professionals currently come from minority backgrounds. Each additional contract provides a new opportunity for BlueFort to work towards achieving our equal opportunities targets. We are currently:
• Working with local educational institutions to promote the uptake of STEM qualifications amongst underrepresented groups. We commit to providing key staff to attend National Careers Week events at local educational institutions, with the aim to raise awareness of the benefits of work within the industry.
• Working to increase the number of women in cyber security roles within the business. Our target is to increase the number of women in specialist roles by 75% by 2028. In order to remove key barriers, BlueFort have committed to ensure that all roles continue to be able to be worked remotely, that we continue to implement fair compensation practices, and that we offer enhanced family friendly benefits (including occupational family leave arrangements).
• Our Equal Opportunities and Respect at Work Policy confirms our commitment to eliminating discrimination, victimisation, harassment (as defined by the Equality Act 2010) and bullying. Our Diversity and Inclusion Policy outlines our expectations of employees in their behaviours to others. To underline our commitment to equality, we have a dedicated Equality Complaints Procedure, designed to deal with such complaints in a way that makes all individuals, including those from minority groups, feel more comfortable raising concerns.

Wellbeing

BlueFort takes the health and wellbeing of its workforce seriously. We provide a range of wellbeing benefits and aim to treat employees who are sick with dignity and respect, providing support, and (if appropriate and practicable) workplace adjustments that may assist that individual to continue productive employment with the Company. BlueFort currently partner with Vitality to support our goal to build a healthier and happier workforce. Via Vitality Private Medical Insurance and Vitality at Work Business, we provide staff with a comprehensive health and wellbeing service offering that helps to address some of the leading causes of workplace absence, as well as offering many proven health and wellbeing benefits (including GP consultations and mental health treatment, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and counselling).
