The society placed 93rd on the Top 100 index, which recognises companies across the private, public and charity sectors that are best at promoting equality, diversity and inclusion, and fairness in the workplace through policies that deliver transformational change.

Lorna Jack, chief executive of the Law Society of Scotland, said: “As we begin Pride month, we are delighted to have been included in the UK’s Top 100 Most Inclusive Workplaces index, demonstrating our year-round commitment to being a fully inclusive and diverse workplace.

“We have strived to ensure that our company policies reflect that commitment, putting inclusion at the heart of everything we do in order to champion equality and diversity in our working environment and ensure everyone is treated fairly, irrespective of gender, race, disability or sexual orientation. We aim to lead the change that we encourage across the legal profession and being included in this index is a fantastic recognition of that work.”
