Equality and Diversity in Employment

The University of Strathclyde is committed to a programme of action to promote equality and diversity in employment. Our aim is to ensure that applicants and employees are not subject to direct or indirect discrimination based on protected characteristics of age; disability; gender reassignment; marriage and civil partnership; pregnancy and maternity; race; religion or belief; gender; and sexual orientation; or any other irrelevant factor.

The University has an equal opportunities policy and a range of equality and diversity policies and information on the website.

To monitor progress and ensure that our policies are effective, we collect monitoring information about applicants and employees. This information assists us in supporting existing staff and attracting a diverse workforce to Strathclyde.  The Equal Opportunity Questionnaire is available below for download and we’d be grateful if you could send your completed form to mscholes@aspenpeople.co.uk
