What is the 5 point integration plan for equality and diversity?

 

The 5 point integration plan includes:

 

• Equality Impact Group (EIG), the strategic steering committee for equality and diversity and will include attendance from each clinical and corporate division. The EIG will be used to measure and monitor our diversity performance at a organisational and service level;

• Equality Standard is a toolkit that carries the values of the EDS2 and WRES. Evidence submitted against standard criteria is assessed against a Bronze, Silver or Gold Award.

• VOX POP is our workforce diversity engagement programme and the VOX POP champion’s network will have the opportunity to attend diversity seminars and training events.

• Diversity Moments is our diversity training program and offers applied diversity training across the organisation.

• Diversity Scorecard is how we measure our diversity progress using a variety of research methods (qualitative and quantitative).

‘Diversity Moments’‘Diversity Moments’ is an initiative that aims to embed equality, diversity and inclusion into the clinical and workforce strategy. This initiative includes a series of high impact training opportunities including:
