Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Policy at Enfield Borough Council

Fairer Enfield 
This policy sets out Enfield Council’s approach to equality, diversity and inclusion. It outlines our vision for an equal and socially inclusive borough and describes how implementing good practice on equality, diversity and inclusion helps the Council deliver its wider health, social and economic aims.

This policy sets out how we are meeting our Public Sector Equality Duty under the Equality Act 2010, which requires us to demonstrate due regard to the need to:

• Advance equal opportunities
• Eliminate unlawful discrimination
• Foster good relations

IIt also includes our equality objectives, required as part of the Public Sector Equality Duty. The policy sets out the principles everyone who works for Enfield must follow in order to uphold our duties under the Act as a service provider, commissioner, employer and community leader.
