September | 2011 | Equality at Work
https://ukcae.wordpress.com/2011/09
Archive for September, 2011. September 30, 2011. There has been very little fanfare and very little coverage about the introduction of the new Public Sector Equality Duties or PSED. Yes it is going to be annoying that the English, Scots and Welsh are going to have different Specific Duties, but what about those general duties? The reality check is that the change is no longer good enough to just say what you want to do you have to prove what you do. Changes in the EU. Government by sticking plaster.

Government by sticking plaster | Equality at Work

Equality at last well in Sheffield at least. Government by sticking plaster. January 2, 2012. I have never been a huge fan of opinion polls but this government seems to think a continual barrage of consultation is a good idea. Now consultation has its place, and people’s opinions do matter, but in terms of government it is usually a good idea to consult before you start the legislative process, not after.

Archive for October, 2011. So just how difficult is it for disabled people to find work? October 18, 2011. There has been much said about moving disabled people back into work and if words counted for anything then there would be no problems. However, words are just that, statements of intent, what you want to happen but how that translates on the ground is what really counts. Enforcement the people’s army. October 12, 2011. Your call but lets look at the risk when it comes to equality and diversity.

Changes in the EU. May 25, 2012. While the UK argues about the worth of equality and diversity and how business should cope with the demands made on them, Europe has been forging ahead with creating a level playing field. Much of the equality and diversity legislation in place in the UK stems from the EU. It therefore follows that the UK is not isolated and not disadvantaged by equality legislation because every member, and every potential member, of the EU has to follow the same basic legislation. Enter...

https://ukcae.wordpress.com/2012/02
Archive for February, 2012. February 1, 2012. Age is an emotive subject, it is personal to us all and we all feel differently about what it is and what it means. Some people long to be young again, some find fulfilment in work and others look forward to retirement to have time to do what they want to do and not be driven by the employment clock. The market will correct itself over time but there needs to be a balance. Changes in the EU. Government by sticking plaster. The Council of Reference, comprising...

Archive for May, 2012. Changes in the EU. May 25, 2012. While the UK argues about the worth of equality and diversity and how business should cope with the demands made on them, Europe has been forging ahead with creating a level playing field. How each member implements that legislation does, of course, differ. Perhaps more significantly it is also about how each member enforces it. If we all develop a common understanding and a more level approach, then that is to be welcomed. It gives business sec...
