Equal Employment Opportunity (UK)

Course overview

A significant 45% of adults in the UK have experienced workplace discrimination—38% during employment and 39% while applying for jobs.

Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) is essential for employers, employees, and job applicants. It ensures that all individuals have fair access to employment opportunities based solely on merit, protecting people at every stage of the employment cycle.

Everyone has a role to play in promoting EEO and workplace diversity—not just because it is a legal requirement, but because every individual deserves to be treated fairly and with respect when seeking and maintaining employment.

This course will help employees understand:

  • Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) and the law
  • Protected personal characteristics in the workplace
  • How to identify discrimination, sexual harassment, unlawful adverse action, and victimisation
  • Reasonable workplace adjustments to support inclusivity
  • How to report and resolve incidents at work

Legal context

The Equality Act 2010 is the key piece of legislation in the UK that addresses equality, diversity, and discrimination. It provides legal protection against discrimination in both the workplace and broader society.
