​The National Day for Staff Networks is the world’s only nationwide day dedicated to recognising networks/resource groups and the incredible value they add to the workplace. 

The next National Day for Staff Networks is Wednesday 12th May 2027 and we will be celebrating our tenth anniversary. The purpose of the National Day for Staff Networks is to shine a light and recognise the multiple benefits that staff networks/resource groups offer and in so many cases offer their organisation.

​

Employees who feel a strong sense of belonging are significantly more likely to stay with their organisation. Research from Deloitte found that belonging can lead to:

• 56% increase in job performance

• 50% reduction in turnover risk

• 75% decrease in sick days

​

A study by Seramount found that employees participating in ERGs report:

• Higher engagement

• Greater career satisfaction

• Stronger connection to organisational values

​

Networks are all about people, supporting the employee journey and inspiring a feeling of belonging. They need to be able to do this in an environment that is constantly shifting and networks need to be flexible, dynamic and ready for change.​​The national day for staff networks invites members of the entire 'eco-system' to celebrate​​
