Course Overview
While many organisations operate with equal opportunities policies and clearly state their commitment to diversity, there is still some work to do to ensure that diversity is embedded in all aspects of any organisations work.
All NHS organisations have an Equality Duty to ensure they are exercising fairness, including assessing what needs to be done to ensure they do not discriminate or exclude specific people.
The aim of this course is to equip delegates with the knowledge and skill needed to reduce incidents of unfair treatment in the work place and enhance communication, efficiency and effectiveness.
