Equality Framework 2011/12
On 13 July 2011, the SRA Board approved our Equality Framework, which sets out nine equality objectives for the SRA. The Equality Framework replaces our previous equality and diversity strategy, and will enable the SRA to continue to progress and promote our vision of equality and diversity as we move towards outcomes-focused regulation.
Our priority this year is making sure that equality and human rights are embedded in our new authorisation, supervision and enforcement functions and in the work that we are doing to get our organisation ready for outcomes-focused regulation. We will also be taking steps to promote diversity in the profession in accordance with our regulatory objectives. Read our equality and diversity action plan to find out more about our priorities and objectives.
Equality impact assessments
An equality impact assessment is a review process analysing potential or actual effects of our policies, procedures, practices, criteria and functions to determine whether they have a differential impact on any groups—such as disabled people, women or black and minority ethnic people.
