For example, this could include (amongst other guises) “EDI officers” or “diversity and inclusion project managers” but would not include general HR managers.
The organisation currently has no mainly or exclusively focussed staff for EDI issues, under the guidance above.
We are instigating a Workforce Development Officer role (0.75 FTE as a guide for EDI) that will address a wide range of EDI associated subjects, with support via various Working Groups made up of representatives from across the organisation. This role will commence during Q4 (Jan-Mar 2023).
These Working Groups have had, and continue to have, full support from HR and Senior Management teams. The Working Groups have existed for a number of years.

Representatives are taken from all Bands and professions across the organisation and are given time to carry out these activities.
