Equality and diversity training mandatory

The vast majority of employers replying to the Equal Opportunities Review’s latest training survey make it mandatory

The vast majority of employers replying to the Equal Opportunities Review’s latest training survey make it mandatory for all employees to attend equality and diversity training, with the main benefits being stated as creating a more inclusive organisation and engendering a culture of respect.

Equal Opportunities Review (EOR) Issue 223 contains the results of EOR’s latest survey of organisations concerning their equality and diversity training activities. Although the last survey in Issue 192 showed that employers expected the amount of training in this area to increase, EOR report that the most recent findings indicate that the time spent on training has in fact decreased. Other key findings from the survey are: (i) the majority of the employers make equality and diversity training mandatory for all employees; (ii) e-learning is the most popular method, but one-off workshops are considered to be the best way of delivering the training; (iii) the majority believe equality and diversity training is beneficial to their organisation, with the main benefits being a more inclusive organisation and engendering a culture of respect; (iv) the most effective training is tailored to the needs of staff, delivered using a mixture of interactive methods, of high quality and fun.
