Will you be ready to publish your new four-year equality objectives by 6th April 2016?

One of the specific duties of the Equality Act 2010 requires colleges and universities to publish equality objectives by April 2012 and then every 4 years. Which means that your next set must be published by April 2016. Are you ready?

Towards the end of last term, I alerted people that they must publish their next set of equality objectives by April 2016. I also highlighted that monitoring by the Equality and Human Rights Commission in 2013 revealed that many organisation’s equality objectives were not sufficiently specific, measurable or legally compliant. I gave links to this research and also to my national guidance that many have found helpful.

In case you missed this alert, I thought it useful to send out another reminder. You can read my original alert here.
