  • UKCA And Partners Promotes Inclusive Policies For Interns

    In line with its expansive workplace policies, UKCA and Partners ("UKCA") is introducing a policy for its interns to encourage diversity and inclusion.

    As a strong proponent of women's rights, and in recognition of the International Women's Day, UKCA will only hire female interns for the month of March each year. To further its aspirations as an LGTBQAI+ ally and in recognition of the Pride Month, UKCA in the month of June, will give preference to interns who recognise themselves to be part of the LGBTQAI+ community. For the month of August, UKCA shall give preference to interns whose parents are in active duty, or were martyred in active duty, for the India Armed Forces, or interns whose parents are farmers. Finally, in recognition of UN International Day of People with Disability, students with disabilities shall be given preference for internship in the month of December.

    Apart from the above, UKCA has also teamed up with Internship Bank to hire female interns from lesser-known law schools to provide them with equal opportunities.
