Agree

Yes, but only for large international corporations

Volt UK might see the requirement for large international corporations to have women on their boards as a step towards greater corporate responsibility and diversity. This targeted approach could be seen as a balanced way to promote gender equality without imposing broad mandates on all businesses.

Disagree

No, board members should be the most qualified regardless of gender

While Volt UK values merit and qualifications, their progressive platform suggests they also recognize systemic barriers that might prevent qualified women from obtaining board positions. Therefore, they might moderately disagree with the notion that qualifications alone should dictate board composition without considering diversity.

Strongly disagree

No

Given Volt UK's progressive stance on social issues, it is unlikely they would support a position that outright opposes measures to increase diversity and gender equality in the workplace.

Very strongly disagree

No, the government should never require the diversity of private businesses

As a party that supports progressive policies, including potentially those that enhance workplace diversity, Volt UK would strongly disagree with the notion that the government should not intervene to promote diversity in private businesses.
