- Flexible work by default - By 2020, all agencies will be flexible-by-default.
- Bias and discrimination - By the end of this year there will be no gender pay gaps in starting salaries for the same roles.
- Gender-balanced leadership - By the end of 2019, women will hold at least 50 percent of leadership roles in the top three tiers of leadership.
