Equality at Work. Supervising: Industrial Relations. The Choice Series #86. A Self Learning Opportunity.
Harrison, Rosemary
This student guide is intended to assist persons employed as supervisors in ensuring equality of treatment and opportunity in the workplace. Discussed in the first three sections are the following topics: equality at work (the meaning of the term equality, the importance of equality at work, inequality and unfairness at work, and procedures to determine whether inequality has occurred); laws relating to equality (who the law protects, what it aims to achieve and what it says, types of unlawful discrimination, and how to decide whether the law has been broken); ways of achieving equality in the workplace (preventing unlawful discrimination, making a commitment to equality, and achieving real equality). Each of these sections contains an introduction, sections of instructional text that are interspersed with reinforcing learning activities, and a section summary. The fourth part of the guide includes a series of performance checks (an end check, a tutor check, and a work-based project). Concluding the guide is a unit review that reviews the objectives addressed in the guide, describes related extension courses, and lists recommended reference materials. (MN)
