NHS Employers -
Due to the large numbers of employees who aren’t office based and are offsite for most of their working hours, Yorkshire Ambulance Service (YAS) wanted to improve the ways they could communicate and engage with all staff, including those more dispersed. Through different approaches, YAS developed three schemes: appointed a number of employees as cultural ambassadors; procured and implemented an app called ‘Simply Do Ideas’; and established a range of staff equality networks with the aim of making sure staff from under-represented groups also had their voices heard.
