Description

The Equality and Human Rights Commission is a statutory body established under the Equality Act 2006. It operates independently to encourage equality and diversity, eliminate unlawful discrimination, and protect and promote human rights. Our job is to help make Britain fairer. We do this by safeguarding and enforcing the laws that protect people's rights to fairness, dignity and respect.
We are committed to our vision of a modern Britain where everyone is treated with dignity and respect, and we all have an equal chance to succeed. The Commission enforces equality legislation on age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, sex and sexual orientation. It encourages compliance with the Human Rights Act 1998 and is accredited at UN level as an 'A status' National Human Rights Institution in recognition of its independence, powers and performance.
This project aims to conceptualise and understand the outcomes and longer term impacts of its work by evaluating the impact of an ongoing project, Working Forward. This is a high profile project which aims to improve the worklife experiences of pregnant women, those on maternity leave and those returning from maternity leave by working with a range of businesses, including some of the largest on the FTSE 100. The evaluation is expected to take around two years.
