Equality and diversity

Shaw Trust is committed to advancing equality and diversity, both in our own oganisation and in others. We aim to create positive working environments  which recognise and value difference. We use a number of initiatives to help us achieve this:

• A Diversity and Inclusion Group comprising employees from across Shaw Trust
• Careers visits for Black & Minority Ethnic candidates under our Positive Action Scheme
• Guaranteed interviews for disabled candidates who meet all the essential criteria on the Person Specification
• An Equality & Diversity Policy (download below)
• Shaw Trust performs annual diversity audits of recruitment and service delivery to assess the effectiveness of its Diversity Management strategy for our workforce and service users
• Mandatory Equality & diversity e-learning for all employees
• Code of Conduct  for all employees, clients and people in partner organisations who we work with
• Support to manage disability and ill health in the workplace

Our commitment to recognising difference and treating people fairly is recognised through a number of external schemes and awards.
