We are often asked questions about Equality, Diversity & Inclusion in the Workplace. So here is one of them.

How can I promote equality, diversity, and inclusion at work?

Ensure you have policies in your workplace that cover the protected characteristics of the Equality Act. So, policies such as Equality & Diversity policy, an Anti-Bullying & Harassment policy, a Grievance Policy and Procedure, and an Anti-Racism Strategy. Getting the input of you and your colleagues is crucial so your managers know they are really addressing what they need to. All policies must be easily accessible.

Create company values. They should be honest, simple, and easy to remember. They can go up on your company website and around your workplace.

Dedicate time for discussing social issues. Perhaps someone can champion this and organise an internal support group that’s mediated (or a specialist can come in from outside your organisation) and sensitive subjects can be explored openly and respectfully among members of the team.

Training and self-learning. The first should be provided for you, and the second is something for you to implement.

We offer over 120 high quality online courses available in 30+ languages. Completing workplace Health & Safety and HR Compliance training should no longer be a chore for staff.

Our Equality, Diversity and Inclusion online course is a 60-minute course and concludes with a 20-question multiple-choice test with a printable certificate.
