Equality and Diversity
Equality and diversity is about the recognition and valuing
of difference in its broadest sense.
It is about creating a working culture and practices that
recognise, respect, value and harness difference for the benefit of
the organisation and the individual.
It is also about creating a fairer society where everyone can
participate and has the opportunity to fulfill their potential.
It is backed by the Equalities Act 2010 designed to
address unfair discrimination based on membership of a particular
group.
