Equality, Diversity & Inclusion (EDI) Training, Page 187 Reviews

Very interesting and thought provoking, the modern workplace has different challenges and it is beneficial to be reminded of the changes.

I like the improvements made since I last did it. Harassment part was a good - to get a definition of what this actually is. Nice to have text and video version. Only down side was the bits where it said some types of discrimination didn't apply to marriage and maternity - I couldn't understand why and how that would play out/look in real life.

Very informative and user friendly training session

The role play elements broke up the video training, and added more interest. The sections were of the right length and built-in breaks is a nice addition.

This training is the longest I have ever covered in the workplace. Videos were far far too long. Not acceptable for todays e-learning experience

Its very useful that to know about gender equality and all other aspects clearly.

I have enjoyed this course it has highlighted how easy it can be to mis-understand some of the issues we face on a daily basis.

Clear and easy to understand very informative

Very interesting and informative

The course doesn’t address the conflicts of rights: what happens when one employee/employer’s religious beliefs clash with a sexual preference or gender identity? Another example: older employees can’t hide their age, and decisions are made based on appearance that are then justified any other way - or, in other words, it’s impossible to prove. Sometimes we are told that we are “overqualified” for a role. Command of English shouldn’t be collapsed as a race category (by the way, the term “race” in itself is old-fashioned and racist). As a non-native English speaker who’s studied a lot to speak and write well I don’t think that people should be forced to accept me if they can’t understand what I say or write - and this excludes the full gamut of national accents, which should always be respected. It’s not the same to come from abroad and expect people to understand you if you didn’t make the effort. Another topic: not maternity but potential maternity as a factor of discrimination to women of an age in which they can get pregnant. This happens a lot. I have worked in retail and the treatment of pregnant women was appalling, but hiding behind the “non-discrimination” laws. I was told “pregnancy isn’t illness” to justify long hours, lack of breaks, etc, and I’ve seen a woman miscarriage after a day of 7am to 9pm because it was the beginning of the Sale period.
