The course will highlight an effective but little used tool that can be used to challenge public sector employers, and service providers, for changes in policy and practice which disadvantage workers and service users across any of the equality categories listed in the ‘Section 75’ statutory equality duty: religion, political opinion (including community background), ethnicity, gender, disability, sexual orientation, dependents, marital status, age). This course will be particularly of use to those employed within the public sector but also those working in sectors where public policy impacts on the workplace, e.g. the nursing home and housing sectors. The tutor is Emma Patterson-Bennett, Human Rights Consortium
