ABSTRACT

We have stressed how, unless diversity at work is actively pursued, there cannot be real harmony and full use cannot be made of everyone’s abilities. We have also seen how some groups – especially women, racial minorities and the disabled – suffer from lack of equal treatment and opportunity at work. We have also examined many of the ways in which the law on equality can be broken at work. You should feel that you have a better appreciation of the problems and the unfairness of many practices and systems in the workplace, and you should be able to explain to your colleagues why diversity is important.
