Staff profile covering protected characteristics 2. Recruitment and Selection 3. Employee Relations 4. Staff Turnover 5. Training and Development 6. Membership 1.

Diversity Statistics The recorded diversity statistics have been collated in the table below: Workforce Data - Jan 2013 Page 7

Across all cases the percentage split is 67.85% (67.7% were female in 2010/11) and 32.15% male across all cases. As our Trust gender profile for this period was 76% female and 24% male we have 8% higher number of males involved in these formal processes than their representation in the Trust. The age range data shows the largest or highest proportion of employees who are involved in these processes fall within the (23%), (21%) age range with both and age groups having (15%), see table below. The number of employees involved aged is in excess of their representation within the Trust. Table 12: Employee relations by age Disciplinary Grievance Bullying & Harassment Capability TOTAL In terms of ethnicity the breakdown is as follows: Workforce Data - Jan 2013 Page 9

The diversity statistics confirm that employees from Black Minority Ethnic backgrounds and those employees declared disabled are not subject to formal processes above their representation within the Trust. 4.

Staff Promotions Table 14 to 17 provides the breakdown of the number of promotions, by the gender, ethnicity, disability, sexual orientation, religion and belief and age. The data shows that a greater proportion of females were promoted during the year in comparison to males. When the data is analysed further, we can see that the number of promotions by the protected groups are smaller than the overall proportion of staff promoted. However, these are reflect of the proportion of staff employed within the protected groups.

14 The Training and Development team have collected data on the workshops delivered during 2011/12, to ensure staff are equipped with the right skills and knowledge to effectively perform in their roles. The graph demonstrates the type of training activity. There are lower numbers of staff attending diversity training in comparison to 2010/11 figures. This is due to the number of staff requiring their update in 2010/11 in comparison to 2011/12. The Trust will continue to monitor the progress in this area and improve its methods of delivery to ensure maximum benefit for staff. 8.

We will endeavour to implement appropriate actions to improve the representation across the organisation. We have set up a working group to look at the positive feedback as well as the issues raised in our annual Staff Opinion Survey (SOS). An action plan will be pulled together to start working on the area highlighted as concerns. The Trust strongly believes that the diversity of its staff improves understanding of the different people we serve and improves relationships between staff. We aim to ensure that the practices we deploy are fair and equal and access to opportunities within the Trust, are maximised. Workforce Data - Jan 2013 Page 15
