• To mark Global Accessibility Awareness Day, eBay UK announces that it will be the headline sponsor of this year’s Purple Tuesday on 2nd of November, as part of the company’s efforts to make the marketplace as accessible as possible.
• Hear from eBay’s Legal Director for EMEA retail standards and logistics Rubya Ramjahn, speaking toThe Lawyer about launching their BAME community of inclusion in 2015, and how this initiative has created a culture of togetherness and better understanding of what is important to other colleagues.
