Recognise the protected characteristics in UK law and learn practical ways to build a fair, respectful and inclusive workplace.

What this course covers
Despite decades of legislative progress, discrimination and equality gaps still affect many workplaces, and this programme helps staff understand why that matters. It covers the different forms of discrimination alongside the nine protected characteristics set out in the Equality Act 2010.
Learners also cover practical steps for fair treatment, valuing difference and challenging inappropriate behaviour when they see it. The course suits induction and works equally well as a regular refresher for teams in client-facing or diverse workplaces.
