An Equalities, diversity & inclusion policy is one of the "mandatory" policies. As an organisation, you need to take into account the law on discrimination, harassment and safeguarding and to put in place some procedures to minimise the risk of an incident.
Inclusion is a positive thing that strengthens your organisation through bringing in viewpoints and ideas you may not have had before. It can help you to offer services to your clients or customers in a safe way.
This template will show you how to update or create your policy.
Alongside the suggested wording are some guidance notes which will guide you to specific resources which will help you to personalise each area covered in the template.
Having the correct policies & procedures in place is an essential part of managing key risks. We can help you review and develop your policies,, spot gaps and recommend templates. Email Caro Hart at [email protected] for details.
