Most of us are aware that things like equality and diversity are very important in almost all environments, but how many of us are confident when it comes to what they really mean? Our Equality, Diversity and Discrimination online course helps you to understand each of these different terms and how they might affect you as either an employer or an employee.
Whilst equality refers to the state of being equal in terms of rights and opportunities, diversity is the state of being different or varied. However, these two things are not mutually exclusive, and the reality is that everyone can be different and yet still have the same rights. Failing to acknowledge this and treating somebody differently as a result can be classed as discrimination.
This is particularly important in the workplace, where legislation has been put in place to make sure that all responsibilities relating to equality and diversity are met. Our e-learning course helps to give you a full understanding of what this means and what your responsibilities might be.
Everyone has the right to be treated equally and without discrimination, and so this course is aimed all employees to help them understand the complex issues that surround equality, diversity and discrimination in the workplace. The course will look at how these different issues relate to one another, as well as how to identify and address the issues of unfairness and discrimination in the workplace.
Ensuring the workplace is not just equal, diverse and free of discrimination is not just a matter of ticking boxes and remaining compliant with the law, but also about ensuring that every single person is treated fairly. By taking our Equality, Diversity and Discrimination online course you can gain a full understanding of these issues and ensure that everyone is treated in the right way.
The course is CPD approved so that individuals can show that they are continually developing themselves and the engaging presenters coupled with informative graphics and animations mean that it is easy to follow no matter what level you are working at.
