Your equality policy reflects your commitment to equal opportunities. It is your promise to treat all employees, and potential employees, fairly and considerately. To make sure that your promise becomes a reality we recommend that you:

  1. Review your existing equality policy and action plan – or write a new policy if you don't have one.
  2. Monitor how the policy is working in practice – this is the critical stage in delivering equality in the workplace.
  3. Take action, where it is needed, to address inequality or promote diversity.

This guide takes you though each of these stages. It also has a useful question and answer section, along with a sample equality policy and monitoring form.
