EHRC 1718-77 Monitoring of key sectors performance against the Public Sector Equality Duty

The Commission now seeks to engage the services of a suitably qualified provider to gather and analyse evidence of the work undertaken across key sectors to meet the requirements of the PSED legislation.

This project aims to

• Gather evidence from all listed bodies on their work in specific areas to comply with the general duty.
• Provide good practice examples of the work undertaken by each organisation
• Highlight where the most impact has been achieved - where real outcomes have improved people's lives
• Draw together conclusions on progress within the sectors on the specific areas
• Provide recommendations on how further progress can be achieved.

The monitoring will specifically focus on the following areas

• Local Authorities - action taken to address identity based bullying in schools.
• Health Boards/Trusts - access to mental health services by people from different protected characteristics
• Universities - action taken to tackle identity based violence, as well as work to tackle the gender, disability and ethnicity pay gaps
• Further Education Colleges - how colleges are promoting diversity within apprenticeship schemes
• Fire and Rescue Services - workforce diversity and access to information
• Welsh Government - increasing diversity of public appointments
• Other listed bodies including Assembly Sponsored Public Bodies - work in relation to the recruitment and employment of disabled people and procurement
