Equality, Diversity and Inclusion in the Workplace

The CIPD states that equality means making sure everyone can access the same opportunities. Diversity means valuing the differences between people. Inclusion is a measure of how safe employees feel in their working environment.  The ‘Indeed: Time to Change’ 2021 report found that 60% of senior managers and HR professionals state the importance of equality, diversity, and inclusion. That said, it can be difficult to navigate the minefield that is equality, diversity, and inclusion in the workplace. Our training covers the fundamental aspects of equality, diversity, and inclusion in the workplace from key legislation to cultural competence in employees ensuring legal responsibilities are met.
