Equality Analysis (EA) introduction

The Council uses equality analysis to assess the possible impact of changes to policy or services on different groups of people.

The Council uses equality analysis to assess the possible impact of changes to policy or services on different groups of people. We use equality analysis as a tool that can be used to drive forward change and lead to improvements in the way we formulate policy and deliver our services.
 
We use equality analysis as evidence of how we arrived at decisions that affect staff, local people who use our services and the wider community.

Equality analysis helps us comply with the requirements of the Equality Act 2010.
