Equality and Fair Treatment
Equality is about fair and inclusive treatment. It is protected in law with the aim that we can all live and work in a society where everyone can participate and can fulfil their potential. The Equality Act directs that people must not receive unfair treatment and that everyone is responsible for this agenda. At the minimum level, all members should act in accordance with policies, procedures, and good practice, while maintaining a dignified and respectful conduct. The agenda should also be supported by recognizing and reporting any behavior that undermines equality and diversity.
