Webinar: Equality & Diversity replay


It is now more important than ever for organisations to operate with diversity and equality as a key part of their ongoing strategy. 2020 has played a significant role in moving forward these conversations, highlighting the areas where change needs to continue to happen. But this is more than just a comms exercise; organisations need to put in place solid and evolving practices in order to grow as a responsible employer.

A key event in our #HJhousing week line-up, Kate Walsh, Associate in the Employment & HR Services team, takes a closer look at the protected characteristics under the Equality Act 2010 and talks you through the recent case law on this issue. The session includes a chance for you to test your own knowledge on potential discriminatory acts and consider practical tips for improving equality and diversity in your organisation.

We have posted the webinar recording above, for you to watch at your leisure.
