A PLACE TO BE YOURSELF
Women at RELX
We value diversity at RELX. It makes our business stronger. Today we celebrate International Women’s Day and the successes, achievements and innovations of women across our company.
Here we catch up with some of the women across all our businesses and around the world who make up 51 percent of our workplace, as they share their thoughts on the issues that matter to them the most.
You can also meet more of our people in the careers pages on www.relx.com and look out later in the year as we celebrate International Men's Day in November.
A PLACE TO FEEL INCLUDED
Diversity & Inclusion is essential to our success as a business.

“Lots of organisations talk about diversity but, for me, it’s inclusion at RELX that makes us different. It is my experience that across our businesses, people can be successful regardless of their background or what they look like. Our people have an openness to consider different points of view and it’s those very differences that make the quality of our thinking and customer delivery unique.” - Kumsal Bayazit
