This pocketbook is a guide for making workplaces inclusive. It has been produced to get people talking about race, ethnicity, discrimination, diversity and inclusion. It aims to help people who feel discomfort to have the conversation anyway and to ensure that we talk about race with respect and dignity and to spark new conversations which would not have happened otherwise.
It offers senior managers, trainers, supervisors, line managers, HR personnel, employees and employee/trade union representatives an insight into the key issues and barriers we face in having honest, open conversations about race and racism in the workplace. It includes sections on:
- the core legal requirements for race as one of the nine protected characteristics under the Equality Act 2010.
- how some of the current debates around unconscious bias, racial micro-aggressions, racial perspectives, and ideas around the concept of white fragility can help us to develop our thinking to have better conversations about race and racism.
- the findings of recent surveys and research on the impact of racism.
- provides strategies and activities for challenging racism in the workplace and
- signposts to further useful links and resources.
