Information about the equality plan
The employer should actively inform all employees of the equality plan and any updates to it. When discussing the equality plan it is advised to also discuss how to inform employees of the plan.
Information regarding the plan can be shared e.g.
- on the intranet of the workplace
- by posting it on a noticeboard
- at staff meetings.
Information on how the plan is being implemented can also be shared in human resource statements and human resource reports. Describing how equality is improving in these statements and reports shows that equality matters have become part of normal personnel policy in the workplace.
When the organization has multiple levels it is necessary to discuss the equality plan on different sub organisations.
The equality plan should be easily accessible to all employees.
