About the Course
Whatever our role within an organisation, we need to know about equality. An employer may be small or large – equality law still applies. Whatever the sector an organisation is in or whatever the type of systems and processes it uses, equality issues are all around.
The focus on equality issues was sharpened by the implementation of the Equality Act 2010. All employers and employees have legal obligations under the Equality Act. Of course, embracing all of the changes brought about by the Act are employers of choice – those forward thinking businesses that recognise the benefits to everyone of showing respect and dealing with issues openly and fairly at work.
Course Objectives:
1. Recognise the key features and context of the Equality Act 2010
2. Describe the types of discrimination and various protected characteristics
3. Identify the impact of the Equality Act on colleagues, on your organisation and on working life
4. Create a brief plan to review equality in your workplace which outlines necessary measures for improvement.
All our courses are run by experienced professionals and involve a wide mix of learning methods including presentations, individual/group exercises, video, case studies and skill practice. All materials and refreshments are included and lunch is provided on full day courses. Please advise us of any dietary or other needs on the booking form.
