Equality and Diversity – Employment-related information

One of the specific duties under the Race Relations (Amendment) Act 2004 is to monitor a small range of employment-related information by racial group.  Similar provisions exist for disability, (equality monitoring data required under the Disability Discrimination Act 2005) and sex (equality monitoring data required under the Gender Equality Duty, Sex Discrimination Act 2005).

Set out in the tables below is the information required to meet DCMS’ commitment to the specific duties.
