Our Values

Our work is vital, and we know it makes exceptional demands on our people. We've identified the values we need to work towards, and which set us - and our people - apart.

  • Integrity. We are committed to being fair, and fair-minded in everything we do.
  • Ingenuity. We operate in a challenging, ever changing world. We need to be innovative - both with our technology, and our thinking.
  • Improvement. The world is changing. We need to change. Constantly.
  • Inclusiveness. We are open to new thinking and different views.
  • Impact. The high quality information we deliver, whenever and wherever it's needed, makes a difference to our customers - and we're committed to maintain, and improve, this service.

In addition, as a Civil Service Department, we also adhere to the core values of the Civil Service, details of which you can find here.

You'll be comfortable with these values, eager to understand what we do, and feel proud to be part of it.
